We evaluated the performance of the MPI/MBCF by executing the NAS
Parallel Benchmarks.
The MPI/MBCF is an MPI library implemented with the Memory-Based
Communication Facilities (MBCF) on the SSS-CORE, a general-purpose
massively-parallel operating system.
To implement the MPI/MBCF, Memory-Based FIFO of the MBCF
is used for message buffering provided by the MPI library, and
Remote Write for communication without message buffering.
This paper shows performance evaluation of the MPI/MBCF on a cluster
of workstations with parallel applications, and verifies whether
it is effective to construct a message passing library with
the MBCF which are based on the shared memory model.
