CMU Task Parallel Program Suite Peter Dinda, Thomas Gross, David O'Hallaron, Edward Segall, James Stichnoth, Jaspal Subhlok, Jon Webb, and Bwolen Yang School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University April 1994 The CMU task parallel program suite is a collection of realistic yet manageble (<500 lines) F77 programs that can benefit from a mix of task and data parallelism. The suite consists of programs from the domains of scientific, signal, and image processing, including fast Fourier transforms, narrowband tracking radar, multibaseline stereo imaging, and airshed simulation. The purpose of the suite is to provide researchers who work in the areas of parallel program mapping, parallelizing compilers, and parallel programming environments, with some good example programs that they can use to test out their ideas. Files: INSTALL - this file announce.txt - original announcement tpsuite.tar - tar file of the task parallel suite directory (including companion tech report) Installation instructions: 1. Copy tpsuite.tar to directory foo on your Unix system. If you use ftp to do the copy, make sure you are in binary mode. 2. Extract everything from the tar file. % tar -xvf tpsuite.tar 3. After running tar, the task parallel program suite, and its companion tech report, will be in directory foo/tpsuite. See foo/tpsuite/README for more info.
