openmpi-1.8 - Open Message Passing Interface 1.8

Website: http://www.open-mpi.org/
License: BSD, MIT and Romio
Vendor: Scientific Linux CERN, http://cern.ch/linux
Description:
Open MPI is an open source, freely available implementation of both the
MPI-1 and MPI-2 standards, combining technologies and resources from
several other projects (FT-MPI, LA-MPI, LAM/MPI, and PACX-MPI) in
order to build the best MPI library available.  A completely new MPI-2
compliant implementation, Open MPI offers advantages for system and
software vendors, application developers, and computer science
researchers. For more information, see http://www.open-mpi.org/ .

This package provides compatibility for applications compiled with Open MPI
version 1.8.

Packages

openmpi-1.8-1.8.1-5.el6.i686 [2.9 MiB] Changelog by Michal Schmidt (2016-01-27):
- Rename compat-openmpiXY to openmpi-X.Y. Package names, directories,
  modulefiles.
- Ship multiple openmpi versions:
  - openmpi-1.4   (compat with RHEL 6.0, 6.1)
  - openmpi-1.5.3 (compat with RHEL 6.2)
  - openmpi-1.5.4 (compat with RHEL 6.3, 6.4, 6.5)
  - openmpi-1.8   (compat with RHEL 6.6, 6.7)
- Avoid breakage in transition from the compat-openmpi package from RHEL 6.7
  (was versioned as 1.4.3, but was in fact a chimera of 1.4.3 and 1.5.3,
   where really only 1.5.3 had any chance of working) by keeping the
  "compat-openmpi", "compat-openmpi-$arch" directory and module names
  for openmpi-1.5.3.
- openmpi-1.8 keeps the module and directory unversioned names "openmpi",
  "openmpi-$arch" it had in RHEL 6.7.
