Loading Programs

If you specify the name of an executable (single process) program on the command line, that program is automatically loaded into Prism. For example,

% prism primes.x 

When you execute the program, it will execute on the node on which Prism is running.

If you are loading a message-passing program, you must specify a number of processes to run, even when the message-passing program runs on a single process. Use the -n option to specify the number of processes. For example,

% prism -n 4 primes.x
