Collective communication performance is critical in a number of MPI applications. In this paper we focus on two widely used primitives, broadcast and reduce, and present experimental results obtained on a cluster of PC connected by InfiniBand. We integrated our algorithms in the MPICH library and we used MPICH implementation of broadcast and reduce primitives to compare the performance of our algorithms based on α-trees. Our tests show that the MPICH implementation can be improved.

Abstract
Collective communication performance is critical in a number of MPI applications. In this paper we focus on two widely used primitives, broadcast and reduce, and present experimental results obtained on a cluster of PC connected by InfiniBand. We integrated our algorithms in the MPICH library and we used MPICH implementation of broadcast and reduce primitives to compare the performance of our algorithms based on α-trees. Our tests show that the MPICH implementation can be improved.File in questo prodotto:
