Has anybody given any thought to the possibility of supporting the PGAS languages, such as UPC (unified parallel C), coArrayFortran, etc. within the xcpu model?
Ijust compiled and installed the Berkeley UPC, and it has its own way of starting processes. Sure, one of the communication protocols it supports is MPI, so presumably if MPI is working then this should not be a problem necessarily. However, it also requires the ability to start multiple threads per node, and currently uses a perl script to start its thing (upcrun). How realistic is the possibility of support for systems that have their own script-based initiators? They are quite common... Regards, Daniel
