MPJ Express Release 0.37

Dear MPJ Express Community,

We are pleased to announce the next beta release (0.37) of the MPJ Express software. This release is mainly a bug fix release.

CHANGELOG
---------------------

1. Added the executing and debugging tutorial of MPJ Express applications using Eclipse IDE. 14/5/2010
2. Modified the runtime to get rid of the shared directory requirement between the starter (head node) and daemons (running on compute nodes). This part is coded by Rizwan Hanif and Amjad Aziz. 6/1/2011
3. Fixed a bug that causes daemons to crash on Windows boxes. 4/1/2011

You may download the software from:

Executing and Debugging MPJ Express Parallel Applications using Eclipse

Acknowledgement: This work is mostly done by Rizwan Hanif and Amjad Aziz.

We have written a tutorial (video and textual) that allows debugging parallel applications using Eclipse IDE. Currently it's only possible to debug parallel Java applications when MPJ Express is running in the multicore mode - this essentially means that the target platform is a laptop/desktop with shared memory or multicore processors in it. For more details, see the textual guide or the video guide.

A List of MPJ Express Methods

Most (or let's say a good amount of) MPJ Express users have excellent knowledge of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) specification document (http://www.mpi-forum.org/docs/docs.html). For this reason, it will be helpful if there's a document that maps MPI methods to javadocs provided by the MPJ Express software.

We have made an effort to provide such a mapping from MPI routines to MPJ Express methods. See the document here (http://mpj-express.org/docs/guides/listofmpjmethods.pdf).
