Sample MPI programs
Up: Contents Next: The MPE library of useful extensions Previous: The Convex Exemplar SPP
The mpich distribution contains a variety of sample programs, which are located in the mpich source tree.
- mpich/examples/test
-
contains multiple test directories for the various
parts of MPI. Enter ``make testing'' in this directory
to run our suite of function tests.
- mpich/examples/test/lederman
-
tests created by Steve Huss-Lederman of SRC.
See the README in that directory.
- mpich/examples/perftest
-
Performance benchmarking programs. See the
script
runmpptest for information on how to run the
benchmarks. These are relatively sophisticated.
- mpich/mpe/contrib/mandel
-
A Mandelbrot program that uses the MPE graphics
package that comes with mpich. It should work with
any other MPI implementation as well, but we have not
tested it. This is a good demo program if you have
a fast X server and not too many processes.
- mpich/mpe/contrib/mastermind
-
A program for solving the Mastermind
puzzle in parallel. It can use graphics (gmm)
or not (mm).
- mpich/examples/contrib/nuclei
- This is the closest thing to a real scientific application that we have now; it has not been tested recently. It is the application described at the end of Chapter 3 of the Using MPI book.
Additional examples from the book Using MPI [3] are available by anonymous ftp and through the World Wide Web at ftp://info.mcs.anl.gov/pub/mpi/using/.
