Probably not me personally, my employer is considering financing a masters thesis with the aim of doing an implementation.

Is there a guide for adding support? I took a quick look at the tcp code, and it wasn't all that straightforward,
though I suppose a lot of the code is aimed at maximising performance.

How long do you think a basic implementation would take?

I am personally unaware of anyone working TIPC support for Open MPI -- but that doesn't mean it isn't happening.

I took a *brief* look at the TIPC web site -- it is sorta analogous to Open-MX? (i.e., sending raw ethernet frames as opposed to TCP)

We'd love to see a BTL module for TIPC in Open MPI -- are you interested in writing one? I'd be happy to explain how to do so.

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has looked at adding support in MPI for TIPC,
Transparent Inter-Process Communication protocol?

Considering TIPC's properties this should provide better performance
than TCP on ethernet.

Thanks for any info,

Nils Carlson
