[Beowulf] Help with MPICH programming

[Mark Westwood]

Kevin

the MPICH home page is at: http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich/ and 
will lead you to most of what you need to know about MPI and MPICH.  You 
should browse the documentation looking for MPI_COMM_CREATE or 
MPI_COMM_SPLIT.  These probably give you the facility you want.  You 
could also investigate MPI GROUPs.

Mark
