The
Parallel Virtual Machine
(PVM) is a
software
tool for parallel networking of
computers
. It is designed to allow a
network
of heterogeneous
machines
to be used as a single distributed
parallel processor
. PVM was developed by the
University of Tennessee
,
The Oak Ridge National Laboratory
and
Emory University
. The first version was written at ORNL in
1989
, and after being rewritten by University of Tennessee, version 2 was released in March
1991
. Version 3 was released in March
1993
, and supported
fault tolerance
and better
portability
. Though PVM is not being actively developed, it was a significant step towards modern trends in
