The Parallel BGL source code is available as Open Source software under the Boost Software License (details). We do not distribute binary packages at this time.

To build and use the Parallel BGL, you will need:

  • A modern compiler. We have tested the Parallel BGL on GCC versions 3.2, 3.3 (from Apple), and 3.4 on Intel x86, Apple G5, and AMD's Opteron processors.
  • A recent copy of Boost. Boost 1.32.0 or newer is required.
  • An implementation of MPI-1. We typically test with LAM/MPI 7.0.6 and 7.1.1, but we have also used MPICH.
  • If you want to build documentation, you will need a Python interpreter and reStructuredText. This step is optional: all documentation is available online.
An experimental release of the Parallel BGL can be downloaded below. When the Parallel BGL becomes stable, the source code repository will be opened to the public for anonymous, read-only access. See here for more information.

Version Source code Comments
0.50.0 alpha parallel-bgl-0.5.0.tar.gz This initial release of the Parallel BGL should be considered experimental. While we have done a significant amount of testing, this is the first public release of this code. In particular, this release lacks tutorials and documentation that would help users to grow accustomed to the Parallel BGL. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or for help getting started.
