Abstract
The PVM (Parallel Virtual Machine) system has been used during the past years in various networked environments as well as parallel and vector computers. PVM relies on a message passing model to federate an heteregeneous computing platform in a very powerfull virtual machine. The development of wireless local area network (WLAN) technologies allows us to build flexible networks which can be configured to operate independently or in connection with a fixed network. In this paper, we describe the study of PVM behaviour over the WLAN technology.
