Official information about MPI, including the new standard, can be found on the MPI Forum home page, located at http://www.mpi-forum.org. This page will also serve as the official location for corrections and future official MPI documents. The MPI-2 document describes two new versions of the standard: MPI-1.2 and MPI-2.0. MPI-1.2 contains clarifications and corrections to MPI-1.1. MPI-2.0 adds to MPI-1.2 substantial new functionality, including process creation and management, one-sided communications, extended collective operations, external interfaces, I/O, language bindings for C++ and Fortran 90, and miscellaneous topics. Other information available on the MPI Forum home page includes the MPI Journal of Development, previous MPI documents, errata, and contact information. -- Articles to parallel@ctc.com (Administrative: bigrigg@ctc.com) Archive: http://www.hensa.ac.uk/parallel/internet/usenet/comp.parallel
