Tom,
I looked at that and *THOUGHT* it looked funny, but I was unable to see
the typo. Yeah, OpenMP. Both have their place, which is sometimes
integrated into the same application!

The list isn't small: As Dan mentions, the drug companies are
big users,
although there's a fair bit of openMPI operation in their codes, too.
Gerry,
I'm sure you meant
OpenMP
(standard shared-memory threaded parallelism)
So easy for fingers to type "MPI".
Even though MPI has far more usage than OpenMP, I have to stick up for
it as a former shared-memory advocate from my SGI days and as a member
of the OpenMP ARB.

CFD in aerospace, and auto manufacturers. The US military almost
certainly does parallel processing involving both message passing and
Monte Carlo simulations. I've written code that solves physical and
satellite geodesy problems using PVM (but I was young and that was a
long time ago; today I'd use MPI); a variant of that was apparently
moved to the production world after I changed positions and couldn't
support it anymore.
I'm not sure to tell you who the biggest corporate users are.
It likely
depends on one's exposure to even have an opinion. However, for the
biggest corporate users I'm aware of in my immediate area,
Schlumberger,
Exxon-Mobil, Shell Exploration, and Chevron come to mind. This is
obviously a very incomplete list.

Subject: [Beowulf] large MPI adopters
hello,
I am curious about what companies, besides the national
labs of course,
use any implementation of MPI to support large
applications of any kind,
whether only internally (like mapreduce for google, for
example) or not.
does anybody know of any cases?
thank you and best regards,
andrea
