Bulk-Synchronous Parallel Library (BSPLib) Programs

The Bulk-Synchronous Parallel Library (BSPLib) which is available in both C and Fortran77 implementations has been developed to emulate the BSP model of parallel compuation on a distributed network of computers. The library is current available for UNIX computers, although work is being done on a Windows NT version. This software tool can be installed on almost any UNIX machine. currently I have it installed on a SUN network and a standalone Linux machine. Note: The usual Disclaimer
