We describe how the ASSIST parallel programming environment can be used to run parallel programs on collections of heterogeneous workstations and evaluate the scalability of one task-farm real application and a data-parallel benchmark, comparing the actual performance figures measured when using homogeneous and heterogeneous workstation clusters. We describe also the ASSIST approach to heterogeneous distributed shared memory and provide preliminary performance figures of the current implementation.
