slap_gridinfo: SLAP Grid

In RBigData/pbdSLAP: Programming with Big Data -- Scalable Linear Algebra Packages

SLAP Grid

Description

These functions initializes a grid of pbdSLAP, assigns the information to a global object, and free the grid.

Usage

  slap.init.grid(nprow, npcol = 1, ictxt = 0)
  slap.exit.grid(ictxt)
  slap.finalize(quit.mpi = FALSE)

Arguments

nprow	number of row processors.
npcol	number of column processors.
ictxt	the grid id
quit.mpi	if finalize MPI.

Details

This function arranges all processors in a (nprow * npcol) grid and the grid will map the big data matrix.

Value

slap.init.grid assigns a global object .__grid_info_0 for ictxt = 0 containing the grid information. slap.exit.grid free the grid. slap.finalize free all memory.
