Octave and PVM/MPI

Octave is a nice MatLab clone ... it does most of what I would use MatLab for.
I don't know what kind of info you want but you might start by contacting the author.
If somebody is doing a parallel implementation of octave I'd like to know about it too.

here's the info from freshmeat  http://freshmeat.net/projects/octave/

Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command
line
  interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical
experiments. It may
  also be used as a batch-oriented language.
