MPI on DAS
The Message Passing Interface (MPI)
This page collects information useful for MPI programmers on the DAS.
- User's Guide
to the MPICH implementation on which the locally available MPI is based.
- Manual Pages
to MPICH. For DAS users, mainly the pages related to the MPI routines
are of interest.
- Standard Document (1.1).
It describes version 1.1 of the MPI standard which is provided by the given
implementations. When in doubt about details of a certain operation, look here!
- Standard Document (2.0).
It describes version 2.0 of the MPI standard.
Note that this standard has not yet been implemented!
It is here because it contains some clarifications to weak spots of version 1.1
(this is called version 1.2) as well as all the fancy things
people thought about adding to MPI but still were too lazy to implement.
- RS/6000 SP: Practical MPI
Programming
This is a tutorial guide to MPI programming, provided (and copyrighted) by IBM.
While reading, please keep in mind that IBM specific things (e.g. about
RS/6000 machines) do not apply to the DAS.
