RESUMO

Distributed computing systems applied to parallel computing allow the realisation of a better cost/benefit relation for parallel programming. These systems offer an adequate computing power to those applications which do not require a massively parallel architecture but need such a computer power not available from sequential computers. P.V.M. (Parallel Virtual Machine) and M.P.I. (Message Passing Interface) are good examples of parallel virtual environments being widely discussed in the literature. These virtual environments are broadly used in both academic, commercial and industrial applications, making attractive the development of supporting tools for these parallel programming environments. There are few of such tools available in the literature. F.A.P.P. is one of these tools and it can be extended to support parallel virtual environments. This work addresses the extension of the F.A.P.P. in order to produced P.V.M. and M.P.I. source code. This extension can help a large number of users to develop parallel programs either by giving support for the beginners or by increasing the productivity of the experienced parallel programmers, besides helping in the maintenance phase. The tool produced is tested by means of several examples which show a stable behaviour and that the tool can be easily used in both P.V.M. and M.P.I. environments.
