==============
MPI for Python
==============
This package provides Python bindings for the *Message Passing
Interface* (MPI_) standard. It is implemented on top of the MPI
specification and exposes an API which grounds on the standard MPI-2
C++ bindings.
.. _MPI: https://www.mpi-forum.org
Features
========
This package supports:
* Convenient communication of any *picklable* Python object
+ point-to-point (send & receive)
+ collective (broadcast, scatter & gather, reductions)
* Fast communication of Python object exposing the *Python buffer
interface* (NumPy arrays, builtin bytes/string/array objects)
+ point-to-point (blocking/nonblocking/persistent send & receive)
+ collective (broadcast, block/vector scatter & gather, reductions)
* Process groups and communication domains
+ Creation of new intra/inter communicators
+ Cartesian & graph topologies
* Parallel input/output:
+ read & write
+ blocking/nonblocking & collective/noncollective
+ individual/shared file pointers & explicit offset
* Dynamic process management
+ spawn & spawn multiple
+ accept/connect
+ name publishing & lookup
* One-sided operations
+ remote memory access (put, get, accumulate)
+ passive target synchronization (start/complete & post/wait)
+ active target synchronization (lock & unlock)
