SGI® MPI
SGI® MPI is a scalable, high performance message passing interface (MPI) environment
including the following software packages:
•
Message Passage Toolkit (MPT) software stack
•
PerfBoost
SGI PerfBoost uses a wrapper library to run applications compiled against other
MPI implementations under the SGI Message Passing Toolkit (MPT) product on SGI
platforms
•
Unified Parallel C (UPC)
SGI implementation of the Unified Parallel C (UPC) parallel extension to the C
programming language standard.
•
memacct
Memory accounting utility (see the memacct(3) man page)
•
SHMEM
Shared, distributed memory access (SHMEM) routines (see next bullet item)
•
xpmem
SGI’s NUMAlink technology and the XPC and XPMEM kernel modules allows
users to create a very low latency, very large, shared-memory cluster for optimized
use of Message Passing Interface (MPI) software and logically shared, distributed
memory access (SHMEM) routines. The globally addressable, cache coherent,
shared memory is exploited by MPI and SHMEM to deliver high performance.
•
MPInside
MPInside is a MPI profiling tool which provides valuable information to help MPI
application developers to optimize their application.
