<div>*********************************************************************<br>
* Release 2.0 of the MRNet Multicast/Reduction Network *<br>
*********************************************************************<br>
<br>
The new 2.0 release of MRNet is now available. This release of MRNet <br>
includes a source distribution for Unix/Linux and Windows platforms,<br>
plus pre-built binaries for Windows. The release also includes<br>
associated manuals.<br>
<br>
Improvements made to MRNet since version 1.2 have been incorporated into<br>
version 2.0.<br>
<br>
MRNet is a customizable, high-performance software infrastructure for<br>
building scalable tools and applications. It supports efficient <br>
multicast and data aggregation functionality using a tree of processes <br>
between the tool's front-end and back-ends. MRNet-based tools may use <br>
these internal processes to distribute many important tool activities, <br>
for example to reduce data analysis time and keep tool front-end loads <br>
manageable.<br>
<br>
More information about MRNet, including downloads for binary and<br>
source, can be found at: <br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://www.paradyn.org/mrnet">http://www.paradyn.org/mrnet</a><br>
<br>
Technical papers about MRNet can be found in the 'Middleware' section
at:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.paradyn.org/html/publications-by-category.html">http://www.paradyn.org/html/publications-by-category.html</a><br>
<br>
The new features and fixes include:<br>
<br>
* Fault tolerance and recovery for internal MRNet node failures<br>
* Improved API for examining MRNet topology<br>
* New filter capabilities such as dynamic configuration<br>
* Improved memory management<br>
* Improved support for multi-threaded front-ends and back-ends<br>
* Updated examples, including a sample Makefile<br>
* Numerous bug fixes and enhancements<br>
<br>
MRNet is designed to be a highly-portable system. The source code has<br>
been compiled using both GNU GCC and native platform compilers. We <br>
have successfully tested MRNet components on the following platforms:<br>
- Linux: x86, x86_64, ia64, powerpc64<br>
- Solaris: sparc32, sparc64 <br>
- AIX 5.2: rs6000<br>
- Windows: x86<br>
