چکیده
This report collects the experiences in porting the Sparse Matrix Solver of the Pellpack from Ncube!2 to Intel hypercubes. The differences between these machines are discussed and some important machine dependent issues are raised and solved. A Ncube/2 library has been installed on the Intel iPSC/2 and iPSC/860. Steps to run Ncube/2 code on the Intel hypercubes are listed for both the specific Sparse Mattix Solver package and general Ncube12 programs.

متن کاملOut of Core FFTs in a Parallel Application Environment
A principle mission at the NAS facility is to establish highly parallel computer systems supporting full scale production use by 1996. In order to fulfill this objective, parallel systems must support high speed scalable I/O -suitable for handling output of large scale numerical aerodynamic simulation. Pursuant to this goal, we seek to execute an 'out of core' radix 2 Fast Fourier Transform (FF...
