This work eventually turned into Boost.MPI. It's able to serialize
and transmit standard library containers, user-defined types, etc,
and is also based on the Boost serialization library. The design and
implementation are similar to what was described in that talk and
paper, although Boost.MPI covers a bit more of MPI (e.g.,
collectives, datatypes).
Boost.MPI was recently accepted into the Boost library collection
(http://www.boost.org), so there is no release of Boost containing
the MPI library, yet. The latest version of Boost.MPI is available in
Boost.CVS (see http://boost.org/more/getting_started.html#CVS for
instructions).
Documentation for Boost.MPI is available here:
