Portable Parallel Programming
\u2022Why Parallel? For performance:
\u2013Realtime needs (weather prediction)
\u2013Large memory (throughput)
\u2022Why Portable?
\u2013Lifetime of code >> machine
\u2013Performance through algorithms
The Message Passing Model
\u2022Parallel programs consist of cooperating
processes, each with its own memory
\u2022Processes send data to one another as
messages
\u2022Messages may havetags that may be used
to sort messages
\u2022Messages may be received in any order
of 00
