The Open MPI Project is an open source MPI-3.1 implementation that is
|
||
|
|
developed and maintained by a consortium of academic, research, and
|
||
|
|
industry partners. Open MPI is therefore able to combine the expertise,
|
||
|
|
technologies, and resources from all across the High Performance
|
||
|
|
Computing community in order to build the best MPI library available.
|
||
|
|
Open MPI offers advantages for system and software vendors, application
|
||
|
|
developers and computer science researchers.
