Among the message passing environments, MPI (Message Passing Interface) has been
considered by several authors as the de facto standard to build parallel software. In spite of …

Parallel programs present some features such as concurrency, communication and
synchronization that make the test a challenging activity. Because of these characteristics …

This work presents ValiPVM, a testing tool for C/PVM parallel programs. This tool
implements structural coverage criteria, using an architecture already employed for MPI …

There is a growing demand for correct parallel programs, mainly due to nowadays
availability of parallel architectures. Structural testing allows identifying defects by analyzing …

Recently, MPI has become widely used in many scientific applications, including different
non-computer science fields, for parallelizing their applications. An MPI programming model …

Characterization of high-performance computing applications often has to be done without
access to the source code. Computer architects, therefore, have a narrowed choice of …

There is a growing demand for correct parallel programs, mainly due to nowadays parallel
architectures, such as clusters and multi/many-core processors. Structural testing allows the …

In this paper the parallel benchmark code PSTSWM is used to evaluate the performance of
the vendor-supplied implementations of the MPI message-passing standard on the Intel …

While previous work has shown MPI to provide capabilities for system software, actual
adoption has not widely occurred. We discuss process management shortcomings in MPI …
