Developers Conference '95

The MPI Developers Conference was held from June 22-23, 1995 at the University of Notre Dame. The goal of the conference was to provide a forum for developers from national laboratories, industry, and academia who are using MPI to present their ideas about, and experiences with, MPI. A report on the meeting is also available.

Newsgroup

The MPI newsgroup, comp.parallel.mpi, was passed in the Summer of 1994 by a vote of 506 to 14.

MPI Poll '95

Researchers at the Ohio Supercomputing Center conducted a poll to help them better understand how programmers are using the rich MPI functionality, what extensions are needed, and how to prioritize their work to better serve MPI users, and the HPC community at large. The results of the poll are now available.

Implementors Workshop

Rusty Lusk and Bill Gropp hosted a workshop for MPI Implementors at Argonne National Laboratory, September 7-9, 1994. A report of that meeting was given at the Second Scalable Libraries Conference in October. They have also setting up a mailing list for implementors (mpi-impl@mcs.anl.gov). You can subscribe to this list by sending a message to mpi-impl-request@mcs.anl.gov with "subscribe" in the body of the message.

Logos

You can get a black and white TIFF or GIF version of the MPI logo found at the top of this page. Argonne National lab has a large MPI gif as well as a small version they use as an icon. The LAM implementors also have an MPI icon. Australian National University has a nice 3D gif.
