Brief Description of MaTEx TensorFlow

MaTEx-TensorFlow provides a user-transparent distributed memory implementation of TensorFlow using MPI.

For more details, please read our Arxiv paper (User-transparent Distributed TensorFlow - https://arxiv.org/abs/1704.04560).

Features:

1. Automatic parallelization of TensorFlow using MPI for GPU and CPU Clusters.
2. Support for data parallelism -- which is sufficient for the majority of DL implementations
3. Support for parallel data readers including formats such as MNIST, CIFAR-10, and Parallel NETCDF (PNETCDF).

This git folder has all the requirements to install and run of MPI enabled TensorFlow. MaTEx-TensorFlow is based on the 1.0.0 release of TensorFlow.
