All I have is a very ad-hoc wrapper that does just what I needed
for my purposes. It basically has function prototypes for the
parts of the API I actually care about and a few high-level
wrappers for passing primitives and arrays to other nodes of the
same architecture.

A while ago, (August of last year I think), there was talk
about
a MPI wrapper for D. Has there been any update on that?
I was considering writing one, but I wanted it to be
high-level and easy-to-use. I ended up not doing it,
initially because I was waiting for serialization to be added
to Phobos (which I thought was imminent) and then because I
got busy with unrelated things.
I think that a nice high-level MPI wrapper for D should be
tightly integrated into a serialization library to encapsulate
the low-level details of passing non-trivial data structures
across nodes. I doubt I'll get around to implementing it when
serialization is added, though, because I'm probably past the
MPI-using stage of my life (my Ph.D. research is basically
finished, I'm just revising my dissertation and preparing to
defend) so I wouldn't get to eat my own dogfood.
Well, my PhD research is just beginning... :)
Any chance you could pass on what you have? It might help me
out
a bit, and reduce my workload toward creating a usable MPI
library.
Thanks.
