-----------------------------
Summary: Remove the dependency on ZMQ for single process training
Key: SINGA-156
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SINGA-156
Project: Singa
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: wangwei
SINGA depends on ZMQ and CZMQ, which are used for both intra and inter process
communication.
In fact, for training using a single process (multiple threads), we can avoid
ZMQ and CZMQ for the intra-process communication. Hence, we can compile SINGA
without ZMQ and CZMQ for single process training.
This ticket implements the intra-process communication by assigning a
thread-safe queue for each socket (i.e., dealer and router). The sender pushes
the msg onto the receiver's queue.
There is a macro 'USE_ZMQ', which controls the compiling of ZMQ related code.
If USE_ZMQ is not defined, SINGA can only run for single process. Otherwise,
SINGA uses ZMQ for inter-process communication for training over multiple
processes.
