Abstract :
C-with-Ease is a superset of C, with primitives borrowed from Ease for process creation and communication. All communication is via distributed data structures called contexts. We present an efficient implementation of C-with-Ease for the Fujitsu AP1000, a distributed memory, message passing multiprocessor. We use two of the three AP1000 communication networks: the torus net for point to point communication and the broadcast net to maintain a global view of processor allocation
