Cerberus can be used to run certain solvers MPI parallelized across multiple computing nodes.

Required installation

Cerberus uses the mpi4py Python-package for MPI functionality. It can be installed with pip.

Notice, however that mpi4py will get compiled with whichever MPI-libraries you have available during the pip installation, which means that it is best to run the pip installation in an environment, where the correct MPI-libraries have been loaded.
