Abstract :
MPI (Message Passing Interface) is a proposed message-passing standard for the development of efficient and portable parallel programs. An implementation of MPI is presented and evaluated for the Meiko CS/2, a 64-node parallel computer, and a network of 8 SGI workstations connected by an ATM switch and an Ethernet
