Title: Interfacing Global Arrays and ARMCI with the PCRC library, Adlib

Authors: Bryan Carpenter and Jarek Nieplocha

Submitted November 1999

Abstract:

This document reports work undertaken at NPAC, Syracuse under the DOE
Global Array Extension Project. This work was intended to investigate the
feasibility of interfacing, and perhaps eventually integrating, GA, ARMCI
and the Parallel Compiler Runtime Consortium library, Adlib. In
particular, we have reimplented parts of the Adlib library in terms of
ARMCI, and also produced a version of GA which internally uses an
Adlib-compatible array descriptor.
