Abstract
By viewing different parallel programming paradigms as essential
heterogeneous approaches in mapping ``real-world'' problems to parallel
systems, we discuss methodologies in integrating multiple programming
models on a Connection Machine CM5. In a dataflow based integration
model built in a visualization software AVS, we demonstrate a simple,
effective and modular way to couple sequential, data-parallel and
explicit message-passing modules into an integrated programming
environment on the CM5.
