The PARMACS message passing interface has been in widespread use by application projects, especially in Europe. With the new MPI standard for message passing, many projects face the problem of replacing PARMACS with MPI. An automatic translation tool has been developed which replaces all PARMACS 6.0 calls in an application program with their corresponding MPI calls. In this paper we describe the mapping of the PARMACS programming model onto MPI. We then present some implementation details of the converter tool
