openmpi_3_1_6-gnu-hpc

An implementation of MPI/SHMEM

OpenMPI is an implementation of the Message Passing Interface, a standardized API typically used for parallel and/or distributed computing. OpenMPI is the merged result of four prior implementations where the team found for them to excel in one or more areas, such as latency or throughput. OpenMPI also includes an implementation of the OpenSHMEM parallel programming API, which is a Partitioned Global Address Space (PGAS) abstraction layer providing inter-process communication using one-sided communication techniques. This package provides general tools (mpirun, mpiexec, etc.) and the Module Component Architecture (MCA) base and plugins necessary for running Open MPI/OpenSHMEM jobs.
