This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th European Meeting of the Parallel Virtual Machine and Message Passing Interface Users' Group, PVM/MPI '99, held in Barcelona, Spain in September 1999. The 67 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a large number of submissions. All current issues of PVM and MPI are addressed. The papers are organized in topical sections on evaluation and performance, extensions and improvements, implementation issues, tools, algorithms, applications in science and engineering, networking, and heterogeneous distributed systems.

Euro-Par is an annual series of international conferences dedicated to the promotion and advancement of all aspects of parallel computing. The major themes can be - vided into the broad categories of theory, high-performance, cluster and grid, and distributed and mobile computing. These four categories comprise 14 topics that focus on particular issues of the mentioned categories. The objective of Euro-Par is to provide a forum within which to promote the dev- opment of parallel computing both as an industrial technique and an academic dis- pline, extending the frontier of both the state of the art and the state of practice. The main audience for and participants in Euro-Par are seen as researchers in academic departments, government laboratories and industrial organizations. Previous Euro-Par conferences took place in Stockholm, Lyon, Passau, Southa- ton, Tolouse, Munich, Manchester, Padderborn, Klagenfurt, Pisa, Lisbon, Dresden and Rennes. Next year the conference will take place in Delft. Euro-Par 2008 was the 14th conference in the Euro-Par series. It was jointly - organized by the Computer Architecture and Operating Systems Department of the Universitat Autònoma of Barcelona and the University Institute for Intelligent S- tems and Numerical Applications in Engineering of the Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, at the Tafira Campus of Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

Euro-Par 2008 Parallel Processing

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 applications. This volume comprises 67 revised contributions presented at the Sixth European PVM/MPI Users' Group Meeting, which was held in Barcelona, Spain, 26-29 September 1999. The conference was organized by the Computer Science Department of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. This conference has been previously held in Liverpool, UK (1998) and Cracow, Poland (1997). The first three conferences were devoted to PVM and were held at the TU Munich, Germany (1996), ENS Lyon, France (1995), and University of Rome (1994). This conference has become a forum for users and developers of PVM, MPI, and other message passing environments. Interaction between those groups has proved to be very useful for developing new ideas in parallel computing and for applying some of those already existent to new practical fields.
