{ General Help On Using XPVM }
{}
{ X P V M }
{}
{ XPVM is a graphical console and monitor for PVM. It provides a }
{ graphical interface to the PVM console commands and information, }
{ along with several animated views to monitor the execution of PVM }
{ programs. These views provide information about the interactions }
{ among tasks in a parallel PVM program, to assist in debugging and }
{ performance tuning. }
{}
{ To analyze a program using XPVM, a user need only compile their }
{ program using the PVM library, version 3.3 or later, which has been }
{ instrumented to capture tracing information at run-time. Then, any }
{ task spawned from XPVM (see help under Tasks/Spawn) will return }
{ trace event information for analysis in real time, or for }
{ post-mortem playback from saved trace files. }
{}
{ XPVM provides some status information at the top of the main }
{ window, in the line which shows "Welcome to XPVM" at start-up. }
{ Often, when XPVM pauses to compute internal view data, a status }
{ message here will indicate what operation is being performed, }
{ and when it is done. Otherwise, each individual view may contain }
{ its own informational messages. For specifics on the various }
{ features of XPVM, and how to operate them, please refer to the }
{ appropriate on-line pop-up help information: }
