Description:�
Autopack is a message-passing library which transparently packs small
�messages into fewer larger ones for more efficient transport by MPI.
�It can be used by any MPI program. �The underlying message size is
�easily adjusted at runtime for best efficiency. �Other features of
�Autopack include:
�� o collective commands that proceed asynchronously
�� o automatic management of MPI send and receive requests
�� o management of message buffer memory
�� o determination of the number of anticipated incoming messages from
�� � a set of arbitrary sends
�� o deterministic message delivery from multiple sources to aid in
�� � program testing or debugging
�Autopack is written in C using MPI and should compile on any
�platform with any implementation of MPI.
