Description: A simplified, efficient, interface to MPI for HPC
        clusters. It is a derivation and rethinking of the Rmpi
        package. pbdMPI embraces the prevalent parallel programming
        style on HPC clusters. Beyond the interface, a collection of
        functions for global work with distributed data and
        resource-independent RNG reproducibility is included. It is
        based on S4 classes and methods.
SystemRequirements: OpenMPI (>= 1.5.4) on Linux, Mac, and FreeBSD.
        MS-MPI (Microsoft MPI v7.1 (SDK) and Microsoft HPC Pack 2012 R2
        MS-MPI Redistributable Package) on Windows.
