Does your chemical app use MPI?

Subject: [Oscar-users] Just a little theoretical question about OSCAR
Hi!
On my cluster I am running a chemical application. Am I right in saying that :
OSCAR dishes out pieces of the chemical program (that can be parallelized) from
the headnode to the compute nodes, and then the compute nodes calculate their
chunk of computations and send it back to the headnode. This process repeats
itself as many times as is possible and necessary, but the compute nodes always
communicate to the headnode and not to each other?
Please correct my above reasoning if it's wrong.
Thank you!
:-)
