Hello, thanks for your help. So Open MPI is OS dependent and actually it dont support Windows plattforms.
I would want to know if (Open) MPI sipports data decomposition and\ or task level parallelism. I think that MPI supports task level parallelism. But i also think that OpenMPI dont support data decomposition (like here described: http://www.netlib.org/pvm3/book/node32.html ) "out-of- the-box". Thanks.
