Abstract

The Message Passing Interface (MPI) has been the dominant message passing solution for scientific computing for decades. MPI point-to-point communications are highly efficient mechanisms for process-to-process communication. However, MPI performance is slowed by concurrency protections in the MPI library when processes utilize multiple threads. MPI’s current thread-level interface imposes these overheads throughout the library when thread safety is needed. While much work has been done to reduce multithreading overheads in MPI, a solution is needed that reduces the number of messages exchanged in a threaded environment.
