VECTOR SEND OPERATION FOR MESSAGE-BASED COMMUNICATION

Methods and systems for conducting vector send operations are provided. The processor of a sender node receives a request to perform a collective send operation (e.g., MPI_Broadcast) from a user application, requesting a copy of data in one or more send buffers by sent to each of a plurality of destinations in a destination vector. The processor invokes a vector send operation from a software communications library, placing a remote enqueue atomic send command for each destination node of the destination vector in an entry of a transmit data mover (XDM) command queue in a single call. The processor executes all of the commands in the XDM command queue and writes the data in the one or more send buffers into each receive queue of each destination identified in the destination vector.
