MPI

De e-Ciencia

Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a specification for an API that allows many computers to communicate with one another. It is used in computer clusters and supercomputers. MPI was created by William Gropp and Ewing Lusk and others.

The IFCA is involved in enabling Grid infrastructures to use it, through the int.eu.grid project in the past, and currently in EGEE-III. Open MPI is the implementation chosen for deployment.
