Abstract
This paper describes an efficient implemientation of the Caltech Cosmic Environment/Reactive Kernel multicomputer communication primitives on a Sequent Symmetry, a shared-memory multiprocessor. With this implementation, the Reactive Kernel primitives exist on distributed-memory as well as sharedmemory computers, and a program can be ported between machines like the Symult s2010 multicomputer and the Sequent Symmetry by just recompiling the code. The message startup time on the Sequent is comparable to that of the Symult.
