[OMPI users] OpenMPI on the ARM processor architecture?

2010-09-20 Thread Ken Mighell
Dear OpenMPI, Has there been any consideration of porting OpenMPI to the ARM processor? Plans are afoot to launch 7 ARM processors on a "Stage Coach" card in a 3U CubeSat. NASA's NMP (New Millennium Program) ST-8 (Space Technology 8) DM (Dependable Multiprocessor) uses OpenMPI as the
