MPI-2 provides interfaces for one sided communication, which is becoming increasingly important in scientific applications. MPI-2 semantics provide the flexibility to reorder the one sided operations within an access epoch. Based on this flexibility, in this paper we try to improve the performance of one sided communication by scheduling one sided operations. We have come up with several re-ordering and aggregating schemes to achieve better network utilization. We have evaluated these schemes on both PCI-X and PCI-Express platforms. With re-ordering scheme, we see an improvement in the throughput up to 76%, latency up to 40%. With aggregation scheme, we observe an improvement of 44% and 42% for MPI_Put and MPI_Get latency respectively on PCI-Express platform.
