Abstract

The Multifaceted Communication System for the distributed memory NCUBE is an interprocessor communication system that supports many features useful for application programs: asynchronous, partially and fully synchronous calls in blocking and non-blocking modes, buffered and unbuffered transmissions, gather and scatter operations, broadcasting, a general pipe mechanism, and file operations. A major achievement of this design is the use of a single, consistent user interface. This paper describes the main features of that interface and the semantics of the operations it embodies.
