Abstract
The session would cover the current experiences with the use of MPI and other parallel programming methods on the current EGEE grid. This ranges from operational issues (ease of installation, administration) to the applicability for the end user (finding suitable resources, making it work).
Important open question to address is how to structure support for parallel computing in the EGI situation; the use of MPI is not limited to any particular application area or geographical region.
