abstract = {This paper describes the methods used and experiences made
with implementing a finite element application on three
different parallel computers with either message passing or
shared virtual memory as the programming model. Designing a
parallel finite element application using message-passing
requires to find a data domain decomposition to map data
into the local memory of the processors. Since data accesses
may be very irregular, communication patterns are unknown
prior to the parallel execution and thus makes the
parallelization a difficult task. We argue that the use of a
shared virtual memory greatly simplifies the parallelization
step. It is shown experimentally on an hypercube iPSC/2 that
the use of the KOAN/Fortran-S programming environment based
on a shared virtual memory allows to port quickly and easily
a sequential application without a significant degradation
in performance compared to the message passing version.
Results for recent parallel architectures such as the
Paragon XP/S for message-passing and the KSR1 for shared
virtual memory are presented, too.},
