Dear Dr. Lusk,
We are hoping that you would add our MPI teaching material to your list of "Books on and about MPI" (http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/learning.html ). Our teaching material is aimed at non-computer scientists and includes both a booklet and live CD entitled, SuperComputing Simplified: The Bare Necessities for Parallel C Programming with MPI. The live CD allows the student to compile and run the MPI programming lessons on a conventional PC.
Our contribution is many levels simpler and infinitely less complete than the book you co-authored with Dr. Gropp (Using MPI, 2nd edition). However, from our perspective, and I hope yours too, our booklet and live CD is an appropriate stepping stone to your advanced and indispensable treatment of MPI. You can find out more about our booklet and live CD at:www.supercomputingsimplified.com.
We will be happy to send a complimentary copy of the booklet and live-CD (the live-CD turns a standard PC into an MPI emulation system running under Linux). In order for the live-CD to work, we will need to know the MAC address of the computer that it will be run on.
In addition, we have begun working on the second edition. Could you suggest any people who have or who are currently teaching MPI to non- computer scientists? We are looking for suggestions that would improve the utility and teachability of our presentation. If you or any of your colleagues have time to look over the booklet, we would like to know how to enhance the transition between our elementary treatment and your advanced work.
Thank you for your consideration and any assistance that you may offer.

Should we add a link from our website? Do we want to get the book and evaluate it first? -d On 10/18/2008 05:13 PM, Rusty Lusk wrote:

I don't see any harm in just adding the link. Then let's tell them we did so. On Monday,Oct 20, 2008, at 3:34 PM, Darius Buntinas wrote:

That page is so old that many links on it don't work. E.g., the 2 links above the new link. Also Pacheco's link and Lessons from the ANL/MSU Implementation.
