Popis: The message-passing programming model is based on the abstraction of a parallel computer with a distributed address space where each processor has a local memory to which it has exclusive access, see Sect. 2.3.1. There is no global memory. Data exchange must be performed by message passing: to transfer data from the local memory of one processor \(A\) to the local memory of another processor \(B\), \(A\) must send a message containing the data to \(B\), and \(B\) must receive the data in a buffer in its local memory. To guarantee portability of programs, no assumptions on the topology of the interconnection network is made. Instead, it is assumed that each processor can send a message to any other processor.
