https://wiki.alcf.anl.gov/parts/index.php/Implementing_a_Symmetric_Heap has an implementation of MPE_Comm_split_node that does a very simple O(Nproc) implementation of MPI_Comm_split_type(type=SHARED) using MPI_Get_processor_name. It also shows the non-portable implementation for Cray and Blue Gene that one can use until MPI-3 is deployed on those systems. Jim Dinan wrote an O(log Nproc) implementation of MPI_Comm_split_type(type=SHARED) that I have somewhere but I don't like it because it's confusing to my small brain.

Hello,

I have a couple of questions:

1) is there a way to find out what other processes reside in the same node as my_rank from within MPICH?

MPI_GET_PROCESSOR_NAME might be what you are looking for. ==rob -- Rob Latham Mathematics and Computer Science Division Argonne National Lab, IL USA -- Jeff Hammond Argonne Leadership Computing Facility University of Chicago Computation Institute [email protected] / (630) 252-5381 http://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffhammond https://wiki.alcf.anl.gov/parts/index.php/User:Jhammond ALCF docs: http://www.alcf.anl.gov/user-guides
