{wiki=Message_passing_in_computer_clusters}

Message passing is a method used for communication between processes in a distributed computing environment, such as a computer cluster. In this context, a computer cluster consists of multiple individual computing nodes (or machines) that can work together to perform tasks more efficiently than a single machine. Message passing is especially prevalent in parallel computing, where multiple processes need to collaborate to solve a problem.
