      MP-3 multiprocessor communication system conceptions are described in this paper. The multiprocessor is a MIMD machine with distributed memory.
      Hardware communication components description is minimized. Careful consideration is given for software components.
      Communication system has three layers architecture. Layers interfaces are separated.
      Channel layer controls the communication hardware, performs message fragmentation and routing.
      Representation layer performs management of internal communication components which have been created specially for high level message passing requests support.
      Application layer contains service functions for specific purposes. The layer provides NX and MPI message passing standards and packet of functions for system purposes. Message passing libraries provide Fortran and С calling interfaces.
