	Message Passing Interface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a computer communications protocol.
		It is a de facto standard for communication among the nodes running a parallel program on a distributed memory system.
		MPI's advantage over older message passing libraries is that it is both portable (because MPI has been implemented for almost every distributed memory architecture) and fast (because each implementation is optimized for the hardware it runs on).

	MPI: A Message Passing Interface
		The main advantages of establishing a message passing interface for such machines are portability and ease-of-use, and a standard message passing interface is a key component in building a concurrent computing environment in which applications, software libraries, and tools can be transparently ported between different machines.
		Communicator objects are passed to all point-to-point and collective communication routines to specify the context and the group, or groups, involved in the communication operation.
		Thus, a send routine is passed a handle to a communicator object, the rank of the destination process, and the message type to fully specify the context and destination of a message.

	2 The Message Passing Interface (MPI)
		The final specification of this interface was published in May 1994 and updated in June 1995 ([MPI95]); [GLS94] gives a good introduction from the application programmer's point of view.
		Data types: in a message, MPI transmits objects of a specified datatype ranging from predefined elementary types to complicated, non-contiguous user-defined datatypes.
		Messages must be sent and received within the same communicator, thus allowing to encapsulate the communication done by a parallel library from the application.

	Extreme Linux \| Linux Magazine
		The Message Passing Interface (MPI) has become the application programming interface (API) of choice for data exchange among processes in parallel scientific programs.
		While Parallel Virtual Machine (PVM) is still a viable message passing system offering features not available in MPI, it's often not the first choice for developers seeking vendor-supported APIs based on open standards.
		While often used in scientific models for shared memory parallelism on symmetric multi-processor (SMP) machines, OpenMP can also be used in conjunction with the Message Passing Interface (MPI) to provide a second level of parallelism for improved performance on Linux clusters having SMP compute nodes.

	Message Passing Interface (MPI)
		Note: This section can be skipped if the reader is already familiar with message passing concepts.

	Message Passing Interface

	1.8 Message-Passing Interface (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The paradigm we will use to express our algorithms is generally known as the Single Program-Multiple Data (SPMD) paradigm: An identical program drives all nodes, but the path through the program is determined by the index of the node.
		While we will rarely, if ever, expose message passing explicitly, we will heavily rely on a mechanism for describing the environment in which the communication occurs.
		This interface is a recently adopted industry standard for message passing.

		MPI is a message passing interface used for parallel processing in distributed memory systems.
		Frequently, the user sets up one process as a master, and the others as workers, but this is not necessary.
		Because the data is distributed, it is likely that a computation on one process will require that a data value be copied from another process.

	MPI - Message Passing Interface
		MPI is an interface or a set of library routines that are built on top of several common developing environments applicable to scientific computing such as FORTRAN, C and C++.
		For the reason of familiarity and ease of implementation on my part, we will proceed with C. There are several implementations of MPI that can be used.
		Now, these processes eventually need to communicate to pass on boundary information between processes as well as coming up with a tangible result to be expressed at the end of the program execution.

	Message Passing Interface (MPI) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		MPI does not include necessities such as process management (the ability to start tasks), (virtual) machine configuration, and support for input and output.
		As a result, it is anticipated that MPI will be realized as a communications interface layer that will be built upon native facilities of the underlying hardware platform, with the exception of certain data transfer operations that might be implemented at a level close to hardware.
		This scenario permits the provision of PVM's being ported to MPI to exploit any communication performance a vendor supplies.
