- Hi there,
-
-
- I would like to know how I can have sockets on Intel's IPSC/2 16-node parallel system.
-
- I have an application which is as follows:-
-
-
- I have more than one GA(genetic algorithm) running one on each node.
- All of them send their results to the host which ships off the results to a SUN workstation.
-
-
- Now I would like to use TCP/IP or UDP(whichever is present) to open a socket and send off the data.
-
- A process running on this SUN would then output these results in a graphical form using X.
-
-
- My problem is though I have all the manuals that describe this,I am not able to find the library with which I have to link my application.
- In IPSC/2 socket calls are library calls rather than system calls.
-
-
- Wouls some kind soul tell me what is the name of the library,if it is present and if it is not,is there any other way to do sockets?.
-
-
- The Intel IPSC/2 runs NX operating system,a variant of UNIX.
-
-
- I need this info very urgently and I cannot proceed without this info.
-
-
- thanks in advance

- An example illustrating the compilation would be very helpful.
