Abstract :
Message-passing is a well known approach for parallelizing programs. The widely used standard MPI (Message passing interface) also defines C++ bindings. Nevertheless, there is a lack of integration of object-oriented concepts. In this paper, we describe our design of TPO++, an object-oriented message-passing library written in C++ on top of MPI. Its key features are easy transmission of objects, type-safety, MPI-conformity and integration of the C++ Standard Template Library
