What MPI library are u willing to use? And MPI only? any justification?

i'm gonna use msmpi and i meant by "only mpi" that we mustn't use sockets, and to make my question more: my application is about a scalable distributed data structure; initially, we have a server contain a file which has a variable size (increased by insertions and decreased by deletion) and when the size of the file exceed certain limit the file will be splitted, the half remain in the first server and the second half will be moved to a new server and so on...
and the client need to be always informed by the address of the data he want to retrieve so he should have an image of the split operation of the file.
finally, i hope i make it clearer.

Is it Message Passing Interface?

A short google search unearthed a wealth information about using the MPI API, and many code examples and tutorials. These sites are your best bet in learning this API. Many of us here have expertise in some vertical discipline in the software industry, but none of us are professionals with a deep pool of expertise in all of them.

In would take us time to learn the interface, then longer to teach it to you. In the mean time, your professor would likely have already covered the material and our work would be redundant.

Great. Let us know the results also. May be after you try you can contribute an article on MPI programing out here.
