BMDFM (Binary Modular DataFlow Machine) is software,
which enables running an application in parallel on
shared memory symmetric multiprocessors (SMP) using
the multiple processors to speed up the execution of
single applications.
BMDFM automatically identifies and exploits
parallelism due to the static and mainly DYNAMIC
SCHEDULING of the data flow instruction sequences
derived from the formerly sequential program ensuring
unique parallel correctness.
No directives for parallel execution are required!
No highly knowledgeable parallel programmers are
required!

BMDFM dynamic scheduling subsystem performs an
efficient SMP emulation
of Tagged-Token DFM to provide the transparent
dataflow semantics for
the applications.

Every machine supporting ANSI C and shmctl()/semctl()
UNIX SVR4 IPC calls may run BMDFM.
