An Architecture for Using Multiple Communication Devices in a MPI Library

摘要: Every year new intercommunication technologies emerge and the parallel computing libraries have to evolve use these technologies. Most of existing communication medium dependent code embedded in core rely on it for management environment. This makes difficult adapt those emerging A architecture, implemented WMPI library, cleanly separates device from library core, making that adaptation much easier. Third party institutions (technology vendors other research institutions) can thus easily any technology. Additionally, architecture enables concurrent number media by library. The freedom is also given developer or not dedicated threads sending and/or receiving. paper describes main characteristics rationale architecture.
