The Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a standardized and portable message passing system, designed to function on a wide variety of parallel computers. The standard defines the syntax and semantics of a core of library routines useful to a wide range of users writing portable message-passing programs in Fortran or the C programming language. MPI libraries allow the compilation of code so that it can be used over a variety of multiprocessor systems from SMP nodes to NUMA systems and interconnected cluster nodes.
