./wip/py-pp, Parallel and distributed programming for Python

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.6.4, Package name: py27-pp-1.6.4, Maintainer: kamelderouiche

Parallel Python module (pp) provides an easy and efficient way to create
parallel-enabled applications for SMP computers and clusters. pp module
features cross-platform portability and dynamic load balancing. Thus application
written with PP will parallelize efficiently even on heterogeneous and
multi-platform clusters (including clusters running other application with
variable CPU loads).

    1) Added -P pid_file command line argument to ppserver.py
    2) Modified print_stats() to output the number of active tasks.
    3) Added SIGUSR1 handler to ppserver.py to print stats when signal is received.

pp-1.6.2:
    1) Made socket timeout configurable via constructor argument socket_timeout \ 
and command line argument of ppserver.py -k.
    2) Fixed sresult referenced before assignment bug
    3) Removed shell from subprocess.Popen call.
    4) Fixed race condition in autodiscovery.

pp-1.6.1:
    1) Fixed struct.unpack("!Q", size_packed) bug which started to \ 
happen with Python 2.7 on certain platforms.
    2) Fixed bug with auto-discovery not working after ppserver is restarted.
    3) Added full support of python import statements. 
       For instance "from numpy.linalg import det as determinant" is \ 
now supported.
       For compatibility old module name imports will continue to work.
    4) Exposed more detailed network error messages in ppserver.py.

pp-1.6.0:
    1) Changed logging mechanism. Now logger is obtained as logging.getLogger('pp').

they are handled.
    14) Removed default logging handler from pp module (to improve logging \ 
flexibility).
