Abstract: Because there is no shared memory in distributed parallel computer system, message passing is used for processors to communicate with each other. This paper discusses some characteristics in parallel programming environments bosed on message passing, and introduces several parallel programming environments general accepted by people.

摘要： 在分布式并行计算机系统中，由于处理机间无共事内存，因此采用了MessagePassins方式实现处理机间的通信.文中讨论了基于MessagePassing把的并行编程环境所应具备的特点，然后介绍几种被人们普遍接受的并行编程环境.
