	PGPVM2 is an enhancement package for PVM. It produces trace
	files for use with standard ParaGraph. PGPVM2  attempts  to
	give an accurate portrayal of  applications  by  minimizing
	the  perturbation  inherent  with  this  type of monitoring.
	PGPVM2 does not rely on standard  PVM tracing  but  instead
	its own buffering techniques to reduce perturbation. A post
	processing  tool, clocksync  is  provided  that removes all
	tachyons and performs clock synchronization.

	How to Get Started:
	==================
	after ftp'ing the pgpvm2 directory,
	create a pgpvm2 directory, preferably as a subdirectory  of
          pvm3.
	copy pgpvm2.tar into the pgpvm2 directory you created.
	"cd" into the newly created pgpvm2 directory.
	type==> tar -xvf pgpvm2.tar
	type==> aimk install
	type==> cd ADMIN
	edit the Makefile.aimk  and  modify  the PVMBIN variable to
          install the pg_administrator in the executable  path  for
          PVM tasks.
	(PGPVM2 requires that PVM_ROOT  has  been  set  accordingly
	 and that  the  standard  PVM aimk exists, and can be found
         from your PATH)
	
	The appropriate libraries and header files will be added to
        the correct pvm3 subdirectories. YOU must have write access
        to these subdirectories !

	Further, a  $(ARCH)  directory  i.e.  SUN4,  etc. will   be
        created below the pgpvm directory.  It will contain a handy
        shellscript, and executables for  clocksync  and  converter.
        Please note that converter is the standard  ParaGraph  tool
        that converts old formats to new ParaGraph formats. The use
        of these will be described in the docs.

	The pgpvm2 library is fully installed. Please  refer to the 
	documentation  for  further  instructions. To  compile  the
        examples, please  refer  to  the  Readme  in the  EXAMPLE/C
        and EXAMPLE/FORTRAN subdirectories of pgpvm2.
