In this chapter we discuss several complete PVM programs in
detail. The first example, forkjoin.c, shows how to to spawn off
processes and synchronize with them. The second example
discusses a Fortran dot
product program, PSDOT.F. The third example, failure.c, demonstrates
how the user can
to create fault tolerant appliations.
We present an example that performs a matrix multiply.
Lastly, we show how PVM can be used to compute heat diffusion through a
