Design and implementation of Java bindings in Open MPI
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the Java MPI bindings that have been included in the Open MPI distribution. Open MPI is one of the most popular implementations of MPI, the Message-Passing Interface, which is the predominant programming paradigm for parallel applications on distributed memory computers. We have added Java support to Open MPI, exposing MPI functionality to Java programmers. Our approach is based on the Java Native Interface, and has similarities with previous efforts, as well as important differences. This paper serves as a reference for the application program interface, and in addition we provide details of the internal implementation to justify some of the design decisions. We also show some results to assess the performance of the bindings.

The paper discusses use of the Java object serialization model for marshalling communication data in Java bindings of the Message Passing Interface standard, MPI. This approach is compared with a Java transcription of the derived datatype mechanism used for bu er description in C and Fortran bindings of MPI. We describe an implementation of the mpiJava interface to MPI incorporating automatic o...

The overall aim of this paper is to introduce mpiJava|a Java interface to the widely used Message Passing Interface (MPI). In the rst part of the paper we discuss the design of the mpiJava API and issues associated with its development. In the second part of the paper we brieey describe an implementation of mpiJava on NT using the WMPI environment. We then discuss some measurements made of comm...

The Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard provides a uniform Application Programmers Interface (API) that abstracts the underlying hardware from the parallel ap-s the underlying hardware from the parallel applications. Recent research efforts have extended the MPI standard to Java either through wrapper implementations or as subsets of larger parallel infrastructures. In this paper, we descr...
متن کاملA Case for New MPI Fortran Bindings
Abstract. The Fortran language has evolved substantially from the Fortran 77 bindings defined in the MPI-1 (Message Passing Interface) standard. Fortran 90 introduced interface blocks; subsequently, the MPI-2 standard defined Fortran 90 bindings with explicit Fortran interfaces to MPI routines. In this paper, we describe the Open MPI implementation of these two sets of Fortran bindings and poin...
متن کاملEnabling High Performance Computing for Semantic Web Applications by Means of Open MPI Java Bindings
The volume of data available in the Semantic Web has already reached the order of magnitude of billions of triples and is expected to further grow in the future. The availability of such an amount of data makes it attractive for Semantic Web applications to exploit High Performance Computing (HPC) infrastructures to effectively process such data. Unfortunately, most Semantic Web applications ar...
