Dartmouth SSF is capable of running on a variety of architectures. It can be configured to run either as a stand-alone program (without MPI) in which parallelization is supported through shared-memory on these platforms (single-node SMP model). Or, it can be configured as a distributed program (with MPI) where synchronization of the system components is provided by message passing (distributed mode). Note that the distribute mode includes all configurations that are possible in the single-node SMP model. Actually, DaSSF running in the distribute mode can be regarded as a collection of DaSSF sub-systems running in the single-node SMP mode interconnected via message passing. The following is a list of platforms that we have tested to support DaSSF in the single-node (SMP) mode: • SGI Origin 2000/IRIX • SGI PowerChallenge/IRIX • SGI Indy/IRIX • Other SGI workstations running IRIX • SUN Enterprise/Solaris • Other SUN Workstations running Solaris or SunOS • Compaq AlphaServer/Digital True64
