In this paper we present some details of the implementation of a programming
model - pCoR - that combines primitives to launch remote processes and threads
with communication over Myrinet.
Basically, we present the efforts we have made to achieve high performance
communication among threads of parallel/distributed applications.
The expected advantages of multiple threads launched across a low latency
cluster of SMP workstations are emphasized with a graphical application that
manages huge maps made up of several JPEG images.
