Overview

This package provides Python bindings for the Message Passing Interface (MPI <https://www.mpi-forum.org/>_) standard. It is implemented on top of the MPI specification and exposes an API which grounds on the standard MPI-2 C++ bindings.

Prerequisites

  • Python <https://www.python.org/>_ 3.10 or above, or PyPy <https://www.pypy.org/>_ 7.3 or above.

  • An MPI implementation like MPICH <https://www.mpich.org/>_ or Open MPI <https://www.open-mpi.org/>_ built with shared/dynamic libraries.

Documentation

  • Read the Docs: https://mpi4py.readthedocs.io/
  • GitHub Pages: https://mpi4py.github.io/

Support
