# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| mpich: mpich (High-Performance Portable MPI) mpich: mpich: MPICH is a high-performance and widely portable implementation of the mpich: Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard (MPI-1, MPI-2 and MPI-3). mpich: The goals of MPICH are: to provide an MPI implementation that mpich: efficiently supports different computation and communication mpich: platforms including commodity clusters, high-speed networks and mpich: proprietary high-end computing systems, and to enable cutting-edge mpich: research in MPI through an easy-to-extend modular framework for other mpich: derived implementations. mpich:
