Abstract

This article introduces MPI-F an efficient implementation of MPI on the IBM-SP1 distributed memory cluster. After discussing the novel and key concepts of MPI and how they relate to an implementation, the MPI-F system architecture is outlined in detail. Although many incorrectly assume that MPI will not be efficient due to its increased functionality, MPI-F performance demonstrates efficiency as good as the best message passing library currently available on the SP1.
