As Dave mentioned earlier, this information can then used by the MPI library (and network hardware) to directly serialize the data into the I/O buffers of the network interconnect, without ever creating a copy in memory, and automatically taking care of potential endianness and format issues on heterogeneous networks.
Do you have any recommendations for links discussing MPI? I just found http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/ via Google. Is this the best starting point? Thanks, Jeff
