- I remember a discussion of parallel makes a while back, but I didn't
- save anything from it (silly me :-).
-
- I'm looking for any code or work that's been done with MIMD-based make
- programs. The makes that I've found source for so far (ucb, gnu)
- assume that the OS handles scheduling and load balancing and simply
- fork off a number of concurrent compiles.
-
- I'd like to be able to submit a make to a mimd-dm machine, w/o OS
- scheduling, however. I'm interested in writing the code if it doesn't
- exist already, so references to papers, tr's and the like are
- acceptible.
-
- Thanks...
