MacMPIf.c, a C language interface to MacMPI.f, needed when mixing Fortran and C
knock.f, a simple MPI Fortran program for beginners
knock.c, a simple MPI C program for beginners
pingpong.f, a Fortran test program for measuring communication speeds
pingpong.c, a C test program for measuring communication speeds

pingpong apps (256 kB) - Two MacMPI parallel applications (PowerPC only) using pingpong.f. The first one, pingpong.ip app, uses TCP/IP (MacMPI_IP.f), and the second, pingpong.ppc app, uses the PPC Toolbox (MacMPI.f). These are designed to test message-passing performance.
 

Miscellaneous useful software for the Mac:

KEYSTROK.f - A Fortran utility routine to pause a numerically intensive program and enable better time-sharing
KEYSTROK.c - A C utility routine to pause a numerically intensive program and enable better time-sharing

Brent Seidel has a web site with commentary and results on building his own AppleSeed cluster, and has provided source code to his own parallel fractal program at http://www.serv.net/~bseidel/AppleSeed/AppleSeed.html
