The PRESTO Application Suite

University of Washington Technical Report 94-09-01
Radhika Thekkath and Susan J. Eggers

Abstract

This report describes a group of coarse- and medium-grain, explicitly-parallel applications that have been made available via the World-Wide Web. These programs have been written using the PRESTO user-level threads library, by students at the University of Washington and Rice University. PRESTO provides a C++ based environment for writing object-oriented parallel programs for shared-memory multiprocessors. The library provides basic classes useful for writing parallel programs, among them are thread manipulation routines for concurrency and synchronization primitives.
