Benefits and Features
MPI has become the industry standard for distributed technical applications and is widely
supported on most technical computing platforms. HP-MPI offers several benefits.
• Applications developed using HP-MPI port easily to other platforms, even those with a
different architecture.
• HP-MPI takes advantage of HP's shared-memory server architectures, such as NUMA
series, in order to get the most performance out of the system without compromising
portability and flexibility.
