For those who want a simple, stupid way to do this, making an MPI
application is a convenient first step.  MPI is pretty similar to PVM
except that I don't know of anyone in the high performance computing
community that still uses PVM for new applications (I'm sure they exist,
but they are not exactly common.)  For some reason the Open Source
community still has this bizare idea that PVM is the way to go.
