Re: Parallel Octave

[Júlio Hoffimann]

Hi Jean,

What kind of solver you're trying to implement? How exactly Octave is related to it? As for most people here, available time is the biggest issue. We all (at least me) have interest in doing parallel numerical solvers of any kind. It's joyful!

I have reasonable experience with FEM, parallel programming with MPI and beginning to play with FVM this first trimester of my master degree. Our research group used PETSC in a project, but i never had the opportunity myself to work with it.

Just curious if i have the necessary skills...

Regards,

Júlio.

Hello,

I was wondering if someone would be interested in implementing/using parallel solvers into Octave. There are several good libraries around that could be used right away. PETSC and SLEPC, for example, are very good libraries that do all the job (no need to know anything about parallelization) and they are both released under GPL. Furthermore, the libraries work perfectly on clusters, but also on single CPU machines.

I would like to implement them in Octave and use this new version of Octave on clusters that I can access, but I need help with the implementation.

Is anyone interested?

Thanks,

JM
