I second that this is a reasonable first step, and wish you good luck with it! I'll certainly help if I can. I think whether my proposal is orthogonal to your effort or not will depend on what kind of computation, data structures and lower-to-upper layer interaction you wind up with. I hope a scaled down approach is feasible within the current scheme. - Michael > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > October Webinars: Code for Performance > Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance. > Explore tips for MPI, OpenMP, advanced profiling, and more.
