[Boost-users] [Ann] Parallel BGL 0.5.0 alpha available

The Parallel BGL builds on the Boost Graph Library (BGL), offering 
similar data structures, algorithms, and syntax for distributed, 
parallel computation that the BGL offers for sequential programs. The 
Parallel BGL is intended primarily as a research platform, to 
facilitate both experimentation with and comparison of parallel graph 
algorithms and to provide solid implementations for solving large-scale 
graph problems in other application areas.

At present, an alpha release of the Parallel BGL is available for 
download, containing distributed graph algorithms and data structures 
for use with the Message Passing Interface (MPI). Those familiar with 
the Boost Graph Library will recognize the same algorithms, interfaces, 
and data structures in the Parallel BGL. Comments, questions, and 
feedback are always welcome, but *please* direct your comments to me, 
personally. The Parallel BGL is not a Boost library (although we may 
seek acceptance at a later date),

The Parallel BGL is being developed by the Open Systems Lab, part of 
the Pervasive Technologies Laboratory at Indiana University.
