The purpose of this paper is to supply a summary of library
subroutines and functions for parallel MIMD computers. The
subroutines have been developed at the University of Chemnitz
during a period of the last five years. In detail, they are
concerned with vector operations, inter-processor communication
and simple graphic output to workstations. One of the most
valuable features is the machine-independence of the
communication subroutines proposed in this paper for a hypercube
topology of the parallel processors (excepting a kernel of only
two primitive system-dependend operations). They were
implemented and tested for different hardware and operating
systems including transputer, nCube, KSR, PVM. The vector
subroutines are optimized by the use of C language and enrolled
loops (BLAS1-like). The paper includes hints for using the
libraries with both Fortran and C programs.
