The MPI data types are generated by running a utility, AutoMap, on the program code. This routine creates an initialization routine for AutoLink. It then generates and inserts into this initialization routine the MPI data types for the data structures which the user has marked in their code. The dynamic data structures may consist of heterogeneous collections of nodes. Visualize the collective output of a command which has been sent to a cluster of computers.
Documentation is also available in Postscript format.
The following provides information about various software environments that are available on the NIST central computers and the ITL network . However, lessons learned here can be applied anywhere. Anyone who wishes can create their own MPI implementation . PVMmake is a parallel make utility written in PVM that broadcasts files to any number of machines in your virtual machine and execute commands on any machine in your virtual machine. PVMstat returns information about the status of the parallel virtual machine.
