Abstract :
The message passing programming environment designed for nCUBE distributed memory multicomputer was implemented on Luna88k2 shared memory multiprocessor controlled by Mach. The message passing on nCUBE was realized using a port facility of Mach. A program loader and a parallel library to port nCUBE programs to Luna88k2 have been developed. By this environment, programs developed for nCUBE can be executed on the Luna88k2, which has a completely different architecture
