1 PAMPA - Models and Tools for Programming Distributed Parallel Architectures

We describe in this paper a Parallel Observable virtual Machine (POM), which provides a homogeneous interface upon the communication kernels of parallel architectures. POM was designed so as to be ported easily and eciently on numerous parallel platforms. It provides sophisticated features for observing distributed executions.
