This book offers a thoroughly updated guide to the MPI (Message-Passing Interface) standard library for writing programs for parallel computers. Since the publication of the previous edition of Using MPI, parallel computing has become mainstream. Today, applications run on computers with millions of processors; multiple processors sharing memory and multicore processors with multiple hardware threads per core are common. The MPI-3 Forum recently brought the MPI standard up to date with respect to developments in hardware capabilities, core language evolution, the needs of applications, and experience gained over the years by vendors, implementers, and users. This third edition of Using MPI reflects these changes in both text and example code. The book takes an informal, tutorial approach, introducing each concept through easy-to-understand examples, including actual code in C and Fortran. Topics include using MPI in simple programs, virtual topologies, MPI datatypes, parallel libraries, and a comparison of MPI with sockets. For the third edition, example code has been brought up to date; applications have been updated; and references reflect the recent attention MPI has received in the literature. A companion volume, Using Advanced MPI, covers more advanced topics, including hybrid programming and coping with large data.

Message Passing Interface (MPI) ist ein Protokoll, das parallel Berechnungen auf verteilten, heterogenen, lose-gekoppelten Computersystemen ermöglicht. Das Buch beginnt mit einem kurzen Überblick über parallele Entwicklungsumgebungen und führt in die grundlegenden Konzepte ein. Anschließend wird gezeigt, wie anhand von graphischen Analysewerkzeugen die Leistungsfähigkeit eines Programms getestet werden kann. Die grundlegenden Fähigkeiten von MPI werden mittels des Poisson-Problems erörtert und gezeigt, wie MPI zur Umsetzung von virtuellen Topologien genutzt werden kann. Zur Illustration von anspruchsvolleren Funktionen des Message-Passing in MPI wird auf das N-Körper-Problem eingegangen. Nach einem Vergleich von MPI-Implementierungen mit anderen Systemen wird das Buch durch Sprachfestlegungen für C-, C++ und Fortran-Versionen aller MPI-Routinen abgerundet.
