Improved version of parallel programming interface for distributed data with multiple helper servers Original Research Article

We present an improved version of the Parallel Programming Interface for Distributed Data with Multiple Helper Servers (PPIDDv2) library, which provides a common application programming interface that is based on the most frequently used functionality of both MPI-2 and GA. Compared with the previous version, the PPIDDv2 library introduces multiple helper servers to facilitate global data structures, and allows programmers to make heavy use of large global data structures efficiently.
