Design and implementation of MPI on Puma portals

Conference ·
OSTI ID:266365
As the successor to SUNMOS [8], the Puma operating system provides a flexible, lightweight, high performance message passing environment for massively parallel computers. Message passing in Puma is accomplished through the use of a new mechanism known as a portal. Puma is currently running on the Intel Paragon and is being developed for the Intel TeraFLOPS machine. In this paper we discuss issues regarding the development of the Argonne National Laboratory/Mississippi State University implementation of the Message Passing Interface standard on top of portals. Included is a description of the design and implementation for both MPI point-to- point and collective communications, and MPI-2 one-sided communications.
