Although PVM is a well established software there has been a need for a
standard set of tests to give PVM users further confidence.  This software 
is a new software designed to test PVM's important functions and capabilities,
provide means for measuring PVM's performance in the message passing area 
and to validate other implementations of PVM.

If you have unpacked the tar file correctly, this readme file should be in

All instructions for the installation, configuration, and operation of this
software can be found in the post script file pvm_testdoc.ps.  The 
associated Latex file pvm_testdoc.tex is also provided.
