This report presents a specification for the portals 3.3 message passing interface. Portals 3.3 are intended to allow scalable, high-performance network communication between nodes of a parallel computing system. Specifically, it is designed to support a parallel computing platform composed of clusters of commodity workstations connected by a commodity system area network fabric. In addition, Portals 3.3 are well suited to massively parallel processing and embedded systems. Portals 3.3 represent an adaption of the data movement layer developed for massively parallel processing platforms, such as the 4500-node Intel TeraFLOPS machine. Version 3.0 of Portals runs on the Cplant cluster at Sandia National Laboratories, and version 3.3 is running on Cray’s Red Storm system.
