[OMPI devel] Fwd: recomended software stack for development?

2014-08-29 Thread Manuel Rodríguez Pascual
Good morning all,

We are a small development team that will soon start working in open-mpi.

Being total newbies on the area (both on open-mpi and in this kind of large
projects), we are seeking for advise in which tools to use on the
development. Any suggestion on IDE, compiler, regression testing software
and everything else is more than welcome. Of course this is highly
personal, but it would be great to know what you folks are using to help us
decide and start working.

Thanks for your help. We are really looking to cooperate with the project,
so we'll hopefully see you around here for a while!

Thanks for your help,

Manuel

[OMPI devel] recomended software stack for development?

2014-09-30 Thread Manuel Rodríguez Pascual
Hi all,

I kind of broke something with mail mail configuration so I haven't
been able to properly answer to this earlier, sorry.

@Jsquyres We are planning to work on fault tolerance and improved
scheduling cappabilities for HPC. To do so, we are first focusing on
serial tasks, and in a next step we will work with parallel jobs.  In
particular, I will be working on job migration, so tasks composing an
MPI job can be re-allocated inside a cluster. Anyway, this is
anticipating too much, now we are in the the first steps of the
project. Also, thanks for the videos and the environment
recommendations, it has been really helpful.

@Ralph Castain: Of course :) Our objective is to create open software
adopting the existing Open-MPI license, and make it available to the
community. i am not in charge of the "paperwork", but I will make sure
that someone relevant in my organization looks at this contributor
agreement-


Thanks again for your recommendations and warmth welcome. Best regards,


Manuel
