Continuum IPC
The Interprocessor Communication (Continuum IPC) Library provides all the capabilities needed to control applications running on multiple processors having data movement requirements. The software hides the hardware architectural details from the application designer. For example, message passing functions send messages using the same application interface and parameters, whether the destination task resides on the same processor, same board, or any other board within the fabric. The hardware abstraction provided by Continuum IPC ensures that applications programs written for current generation processors and fabrics will be easily portable to next generation processors and fabrics.
