CPS615 Foils -- Message Passing Interface MPI for users

Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science on Fall Semester 95. Foils prepared 10 Oct 1995

This covers MPI from a user's point of view and is meant to be a supplement to other online resources from MPI Forum, David Walker's Tutorial, Ian Foster's "Designing and Building Parallel Programs", Gropp,Lusk and Skjellum "Using MPI"
An Overview is based on subset of 6 routines that cover send/receive, environment inquiry (for rank and total number of processors) initialize and finalization with simple examples
Processor Groups, Collective Communication and Computation and Derived Datatypes are also discussed
