We at Hughes Aircraft are using MPI for real-time embedded military
systems. We have ported the Argonne/Mississippi State MPICH to the Mercury
RACE architecture. We are interested in real-time extensions to MPI, and
would like to see the MPI Forum contain a specific subcomittee to address
this domain in MPI-2. We also have a preliminary Ada83 binding to MPI,
which we hope to propose to the MPI Forum as the basis for a standard MPI
Ada (83 or 95) binding.
