First, this list is for the MPI Forum to organize its efforts on developing the MPI standard, not for general purpose MPI-related support. You might consider asking <http://groups.google.com/group/comp.parallel.mpi> or similar online forum for assistance. Second, your questions is effectively impossible to answer. There are thousands upon thousands of non-trivial, real-life applications using MPI in research science and industry. If you are new to MPI and parallel computing, you might want to acquire "Using MPI" from your nearest library or online bookseller. It will be relatively difficult for you to benchmark MPI applications if you do not understand MPI. A recently released free online book - <http://tacc-web.austin.utexas.edu/staff/home/veijkhout/public_html/Articles…> - may help you to understand high-performance computing.

May meeting
by RICHARD GRAHAM 28 Apr '11

I just got confirmation that later today the registration site will add both wire transfers and payment through the Automated Clearing House as an option. If you have already registered and indicated you would pay by check, and would like to change that, please send me and Tammy a note, and we will have your record stricken from the registration, so that you can re-register. Sorry for the inconvenience this meeting is causing. Rich

Sorry to bug people again. As the note indicates, reservations at the Milpitas hotel may not be quite what the appear to be. For example, Rolf confirmed his reservation, but his name is not on the guest list, SO, I would suggest that if you made a reservation (Bill, you are OK) there, you contact either them. Our conference folks will also help, if need be. The hotel has confirmed that they will continue to honor the promised rate (ORNL may need to contact them to get a rate change), and they still have availability. I NO case should anyone have to pay more that $116/night, and if that is the case, please let us know. Thanks, Rich > Rich: > > I sent the registration list to Residence Inn in Milpitas but did not hear back from Tina. > > At this point, I would send an e-mail to everyone telling them to make their reservation by calling Tina directly at 408-941-9222, ext 7503.

May Registration
by RICHARD GRAHAM 27 Apr '11

27 Apr '11

With all the network problems we have been experiencing, I need to check again about registrations for the next meeting. When I asked a couple of weeks ago, about 15 people indicated they would come to the next meeting, but the registration data-base has much less folks than that. If you had indicated that you would come, and have changed your mind (one person has already communicated with me) please let me know. If you tried to register, and could not, please let me know. If you plan to come, and have not registered, please do so at your earliest convenience - with all the trouble we are having, the people setting up the logistics for the meeting are on pins and needles. The main issue here is to make sure we have logistics setup for the right number of people. Thanks, Rich

Re: [Mpi-forum] automating building PDFs?
by Jeff Squyres 26 Apr '11

+1 on this. Would one of the academic members be able to provide such a service, perchance? (i.e., someone who can easily deploy a web service) Fab is not the only one who was affected by such things -- I know that Alexander Supalov and Dave Solt have also both previously had problem trying to edit / build documents for tickets, etc. As I understand it, Dave now uses an ancient internal HP-UX server with an ancient version of latex, so the problem is more-or-less solved for him, but having a shrink-wrapped way for Forum members to produce a perfect document without needing to install any additional software would be most useful.
