mercury-rpc

C library for implementing RPC, optimized for HPC

Mercury is a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework specifically designed for use in High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems with high-performance fabrics. Its network implementation is abstracted to make efficient use of native transports and allow easy porting to a variety of systems (including future systems). Mercury supports asynchronous transfer of parameters and execution requests, and has dedicated support for large data arguments that are transferred using Remote Memory Access (RMA). Its interface is generic and allows any function call to be serialized. Since code generation is done using the C preprocessor, no external tool is required.
