 # mvapich2
 
+MVAPICH2 is a high performance MPI-2 implementation (with initial support for MPI-3) for InfiniBand, 10GigE/iWARP and RoCE.
+MVAPICH2 delivers best performance, scalability and fault tolerance for high-end computing systems and servers.  MVAPICH2 provides underlying support for several interfaces (such as OFA-IB, OFA-iWARP, OFA-RoCE, PSM, Shared Memory, and TCP) for portability across multiple networks.
