Valiant proposed the Bulk Synchronous Parallel (BSP) model as a possible model for parallel computing. He refers to BSP as a ``bridging'' model, being applicable to both system and algorithm design. The model allows hardware and software design to proceed independently but ensures compatibility betw

## SUMMARY We show that the bulk synchronous parallel (BSP) model, originally designed for distributedβmemory systems, is also applicable for sharedβmemory multicore systems and, furthermore, that BSP libraries are useful in scientific computing on these systems. A proofβofβconcept MulticoreBSP lib
An analysis is presented of the primary factors influencing the performance of a parallel implementation of the UCLA atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) on distributedmemory, massively parallel computer systems. Several modifications to the original parallel AGCM code aimed at improving its
## Abstract NestStep is a parallel programming language for the BSP (bulkβhronous parallel) programming model. In this article we describe the concept of distributed shared arrays in NestStep and its implementation on top of MPI. In particular, we present a novel method for runtime scheduling of ir
