| Abstract: | The Message Passing Interface is the de-facto standard for parallel programming. It oers a comprehensive set of point-to-point and collective communication operations and One Sided access semantics. MPI's complexity is manifold: novice users can compose parallel programs with only six MPI function calls, while advanced users can benet from the higher abstraction and performance portability of the 200+ remaining calls. Often overlooked features, such as datatypes, can directly optimize program execution and reduce energy consumption. This tutorial will educate MPI users about advanced features in the current MPI-2.2 and is the rst to present a detailed overview of new features and capabilities as well as changes in the upcoming MPI-3.0. We will discuss advanced use of MPI datatypes, nonblocking point-to-point and nonblocking collective communications, topology mapping, and neighborhood collective communication. We will also discuss advanced usage of MPI-2 and MPI-3 One Sided operations, which represent a PGAS model to the user. Hybrid programming principles, language bindings and an overview of tools and new query interfaces will round up our presentation of advanced MPI-3.0. We expect that tutorial attendees will be able to use MPIs advanced features to improve their existing code and their productivity for writing new applications.
