Summary : Process Management Interface for MPI
Description :
The Process Management Interface (PMI) has been used for quite some time as a
means of exchanging wireup information needed for interprocess communication. Two
versions (PMI-1 and PMI-2) have been released as part of the MPICH effort. While
PMI-2 demonstrates better scaling properties than its PMI-1 predecessor, attaining
rapid launch and wireup of the roughly 1M processes executing across 100k nodes
expected for exascale operations remains challenging.
This RPM contains all the tools necessary to compile and link against PMIx.
