+Open MPI: Open Source High Performance Computing
+
+A High Performance Message Passing Library
+
+The Open MPI Project is an open source MPI-2 implementation that is
+developed and maintained by a consortium of academic, research, and
+industry partners. Open MPI is therefore able to combine the
+expertise, technologies, and resources from all across the High
+Performance Computing community in order to build the best MPI library
+available. Open MPI offers advantages for system and software vendors,
+application developers and computer science researchers.
