An MPD program runs on one or more networked Unix machines of the same architecture.
Multiprocessing is simulated on other platforms.
MPD has been tested on the platforms listed above and on Digital Unix. MPD is distributed as source code in a 600KB gzipped tar file. The implementation consists of a compiler that translates MPD to C, a linker that serves as a front-end to ld , and associated other programs and library files. The latest version of MPD is version 1.0, packaged March 13, 2001. Download MPD 1.0 .
