Abstract
The ACS (Adaptive Communication System) is a multithreaded message-passing system that provides application programmers with multithreading and flexible communication services. This paper outlines the general software architecture of ACS and describes how the ACS architecture is applied to implement its flexible application-level group communication services. We provide the performance results of ACS multicasting services and compare them with those of p4, PVM, and MPI.
