Re: Can tomcat serve MPI (parallel) applications?

As I said earlier, it has been a long time since I worked with MPI (1991 to be exact) so I am not quite understanding your application or the software topology. Let me ask a few more questions. It seems you say that a request for processing comes in, the task it split among many hosts using MPI,

Re: Can tomcat serve MPI (parallel) applications?

It has been a lot of years since I worked with MPI, but IIRC one "host" has to be the master (usually called mpirun or mpiexec) that distributes the tasks to the "dependent hosts" and then collects the processed results. If this is true, then using one machine as a dedicated front end makes sense

Re: Can tomcat serve MPI (parallel) applications?

Hello John, as far as I know, all processes are equivalent, although the one with rank 0 is usually used for logging unless each process has to contribute its own logging messages. I am using the openmpi MPI software as basis with business logic written in C and a JNI interface to make it

Can tomcat serve MPI (parallel) applications?

Hello, I am looking for a solution for a tomcat container, which is supposed to serve a web application, which is using MPI (openmpi) internally. (The servlet is making JNI calls to C library functions. I have validated that this Java-MPI connection runs without problems when NOT using tomcat.)
