Abstract:
MPI is the de facto message passing standard for multicomputers and networks of workstations, established by the MPI Forum, a group of universities, research centers, and national laboratories (from both the United States and Europe), as well as multinational vendors in the area of high performance computing. MPI has been implemented already by several groups. Worldwide acceptance of MPI has been quite rapid. This paper overviews several areas in which MPI can be extended, discusses the merits of making such extensions, and begins to demonstrate how some of these extensions can be made. In some areas, such as intercommunicator extensions, significant progress has been made by us already. In other areas (such as remote memory access), we are merely proposing extensions to MPI that we have not yet reduced to practice. Furthermore, we point out that other researchers are evidently working in parallel with us on their own extension concepts for MPI. 1
