ECO: Efficient Collective Operations for communication on heterogeneous networks

Abstract
PVM and other distributed computing systems have enabled the use of networks of workstationsfor parallel computation, but their approach of treating all networks as collectionsof point-to-point connections does not promote efficient communication---particularly collectivecommunication. The Efficient Collective Operations package (ECO) contains programswhich solve this problem by analyzing the network and establishing efficient communicationpatterns. These patterns are used by ECO's library ...
