Abstract
Past research in communication infrastructure for parallel computing has shown that Active Messages is an attractive communication model that allows efficient implementations on a variety of architectures. This has been demonstrated through microbenchmarks, by including Active Messages in a runtime system for SplitC – a parallel SPMD extension of C, and by analyzing performance of a set of Split-C benchmarks. The goal of this work is to demonstrate that Active Messages are applicable for building a range of parallel runtime systems. Design and implementation issues are discussed in context of three programming languages: Split-C, CC++ and CRL, representing the three prominent parallel computing models: SPMD, MPMD and DSM, respectively.
