Begin3 Title: National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Parallel Applications Development Environment (PADE) or PADE (pronounced "pah-DAY"). Version: 1.0 Entered-date: 4/4/95 Description: The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Parallel Applications Development Environment, PADE for short, is a flexible, customizable environment for developing parallel applications that use the Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) message-passing library. It provides an integrated framework for all phases of development of a parallel application: editing, compilation, execution, debugging, and performance monitoring. PADE consists of an intuitive graphical user interface, a suite of PVM utilities, and extensive documentation in PostScript, ASCII, and HTML formats. PADE requires X-windows, Tcl 7.3/Tk 3.6, and PVM software in order to run on the development host of the virtual machine. To exercise all of its features, PADE also needs a WWW-browser such as Mosaic or Netscape.
