Summary : Global Arrays Toolkit for OpenMPI

License : BSD
Description :
: The Global Arrays (GA) toolkit provides an efficient and portable
: "shared-memory" programming interface for distributed-memory
: computers. Each process in a MIMD parallel program can asynchronously
: access logical blocks of physically distributed dense multi-
: dimensional arrays, without need for explicit cooperation by other
: processes. Unlike other shared-memory environments, the GA model
: exposes to the programmer the non-uniform memory access (NUMA)
: characteristics of the high performance computers and acknowledges
: that access to a remote portion of the shared data is slower than to
: the local portion. The locality information for the shared data is
: available, and a direct access to the local portions of shared data
: is provided.
