Open MPI is an open source implementation of the Message Passing Interface, a library for distributed memory parallel programming.

The Open MPI Project is an open-source implementation of the Message Passing Interface, a standardized and portable message-passing system designed to leverage to computational power of massively parallel, distributed memory computers.

Message passing is one of the distributed memory models most often used, with MPI being the most used message passing API, offering two types of communication between processes: point-to-point or collective. MPI can run in distributed and shared memory architectures.

An application using MPI consists usually of multiple simultaneously running processes, normally on different CPUs, which are able to communicate with each other. Normally, this type of application is programmed using the SPMD model. Nevertheless, most MPI implementations also support the MPMD model.

More information about the MPI standard may be found on the official MPI Forum website, in the official documentation, and in the Open MPI documentation.

Parallel MPI Implementation of Serial Code

I have this code which uses Euler's method to solve the simple ODE - dy/dt = 2y - 2t^2 - 3. The serial code takes random values for y_0 and computes the result. I want to use MPI to send each node its own y_0 value and collect the results. Do I…
