MPI.NET
MPI.NET is a high-performance, easy-to-use implementation of
the Message Passing
Interface (MPI) for Microsoft's .NET environment. MPI is
the de facto standard for writing parallel programs running
on a distributed memory system, such as a compute cluster, and is
widely implemented. Most MPI implementations provide support for
writing MPI programs in C, C++, and Fortran. MPI.NET provides
support for all of the .NET languages (especially C#), and includes
significant extensions (such as automatic serialization of objects)
that make it far easier to build parallel programs that run on
clusters.
News
- February 21, 2008: The MPI.NET 0.6.0 release is now
available. This release contains support for MPI attributes and
topologies, bug fixes, improved performance, and support for
building MPI.NET applications on Unix
using Mono. Please
see our download page
for more information.
- February 18, 2008: Douglas Gregor will be giving a talk
about MPI.NET at the
ACM SIGPLAN Symposium
on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming (PPoPP
'08) this week in Salt Lake City, Utah.
- November 11, 2007: The MPI.NET 0.5.0 Technology Preview
release is now available, providing a high-performance,
easy-to-use MPI interface for C# and the other Microsoft .NET
languages. Please see our download page
for more information.
- April, 2007: We have begun development of a completely
new, open source MPI.NET library written in C#. This new MPI.NET
is based
on Boost.MPI,
and will provide a far more natural and expressive high-level
interface to MPI from C# and the other .NET languages. A preview
release of MPI.NET will be available here
for SC '07.
