HPC Lab 2 – Getting Started with MPI using a shell script

In the previous post I illustrated how to start MPI programs using the MPI command mpiexec. mpiexec provisions to each application instance an execution environment which enables effective communication between all instances. MPI allows to organize application instances in groups and to create communication objects for communication between members of the same groups (intra-group communicator) …

HPC Lab 1 – Run an MPI Program with mpiexec

Message passing is an integral technique for parallel programs that run on a cluster computer. The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a standardized and portable specification that is available in many HPC environments. In this post I explain how to start one or more instances of the same program on one ore more compute nodes …
