Project Summary

The MPI task management system for the dynamical astronomy

The Mechanic is a task management system and host software framework developed to help in conducting massive numerical simulations. It provides powerful and flexible user API with unified data storage and management. It relies on the core-module approach, which allows to separate numerical problem from the common programming tasks, such as setup, storage, task management, splitting the workload, checkpointing etc. From this point of view it allows the user to focus on the numerical part of the scientific problem only, without digging into MPI or advanced data storage. Since the user API is written in C, it allows to easily adapt any code developed with a C-interoperable programming language, such as C++, Fortran2003+, OpenCL, CUDA
