Announcement of report by Kishore Viswanathan and Anthony Skjellum:
"Collective Operations Using ELROS and Sockets" The paper discusses
the implementation of collective operations using ELROS (Embedded
Language for Remote Operation Service, developed at Lawerence
Livermore National Laboratory) and sockets. The advantages and
disadvantages of using ELROS over sockets to implement collective
operations is also discussed. Available from
