Abstract: Open MPI continues to drive the state-of-the-art in HPC. This year, we've added new features, fixed bugs, improved performance and collaborated with many across the HPC community. We'll discuss what Open MPI has accomplished over the past year and present a roadmap for the next year.
One of Open MPI's strength lies in its diversity: we represent many different viewpoints across the HPC ecosystem. To that end, many developers from the community will be present to discuss and answer your questions both during and after the BoF.
Long Description: The Open MPI community has been hard at work on new and useful
features, tweaking performance improvements, and overall improving the
structure and clarity of the code. Our emphasis over the last year
has been working towards adding support for new network
infrastructures, platforms, and environments, all within the context
of a stable full MPI-4.0 implementation (be sure to see the MPI Forum
BOF for details on MPI-4.0).
Over the past few years, we have found that the BOF format makes it
difficult to solicit questions and feedback from the community who
attends our BOF. However, we consider such questions and feedback
vital to the continuation of Open MPI -- our users and community are a
huge portion of what helps Open MPI keep evolving in a direction that
is genuinely useful. This year, we are soliciting questions from the
web before the BOF; send us your questions, comments, and feedback and
we'll discuss them during the BOF:

In this BOF, we'll present where Open MPI currently is and where it is
going. Here are some of the highlights of what will be covered during
the discussions:
- The Open MPI v4.1.x and v5.0.x series
- Tie-ins to current MPI Forum developments
- Supporting more hardware platforms and networks
Be part of the discussion: submit your questions ahead of time and
come hear where Open MPI is going, and how you can (and should!) join
our efforts.
