--- Please fill out the fields below. --- Package name: autopack Version: 1.3.2 Upstream Author: Raymond Loy <r...@mcs.anl.gov> URL: http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/autopack/ License: Free software Description: Autopack is a message-passing library which transparently packs small messages into fewer larger ones for more efficient transport by MPI. It can be used by any MPI program. The underlying message size is easily adjusted at runtime for best efficiency. Other features of Autopack include: o collective commands that proceed asynchronously o automatic management of MPI send and receive requests o management of message buffer memory o determination of the number of anticipated incoming messages from a set of arbitrary sends o deterministic message delivery from multiple sources to aid in program testing or debugging Autopack is written in C using MPI and should compile on any platform with any implementation of MPI. -- Debian Developer (Scientific applications) Prof. at Univ.
