[Insight-users] Clusters and MPI

[Gavin Baker]

Hello all,

What is the current state of clustering support with ITK?

A few people have mentioned using ITK in clusters using MPI:

  http://www . itk . org/pipermail/insight-users/2003-January/002181 . html
  http://www . itk . org/pipermail/insight-users/2003-October/003633 . html

Has anyone made any progress with this?  Are there any official plans to add
MPI support?

I understand ITK has multi-threading support built in, but does not yet
support MPI.  I know that VTK has MPI support - how much of this could be
adapted to ITK?

Would it be feasible to use MPI to connect pipelines, or would it be better
to adapt the multi-threading infrastructure to optionally use MPI?

Thanks for any info,
