Yiannis Cotronis, Jack Dongarra (Eds.) Recent Advances in and Message Passing Interface 8th European PVM/MPI Users' Group Meeting, Santorini/Thera, Greece, September 23-26, 2001. Proceedings Series: Lecture Notes in Science

Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) and Message Passing Interface (MPI) are the most frequently used tools for programming according to the message passing paradigm, which is considered one of the best ways to develop parallel appli- tions. This volume comprises 50 revised contributions presented at the Eighth - ropean PVM/MPI Users’ Group Meeting, which was held on Santorini (Thera), Greece,23–26September2001. TheconferencewasorganizedbytheDepartment of Informatics and Telecommunications, 2001, XVI, 444 p. University of Athens, Greece. This conference has been previously held in Balatofured, ¨ Hungary (2000), Barcelona, Spain (1999), Liverpool, UK (1998), and Krakow, Poland (1997).
