The Schwimmbad

http://img.shields.io/pypi/v/schwimmbad.svg?style=flat http://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg?style=flat

schwimmbad provides a uniform interface to parallel processing pools and enables switching easily between local development (e.g., serial processing or with multiprocessing) and deployment on a cluster or supercomputer (via, e.g., MPI or JobLib).

Installation

The easiest way to install is via pip:

pip install schwimmbad

See the installation instructions in the documentation for more information.

Documentation

The documentation for schwimmbad is hosted on Read the docs.

DNA Storage Changes

  • schwimmbad/mpi.py changed to support communicators to allow for MPI communicator groups on a given task. For DNA storage, provides power for pipeline pieces to utilize MPI parallelization. Immediately useful for strand-grain parallelization, could be useful for clustering algorithms.
  • schwimmbad/__init__.py changed to allow pool interface to return mpi pool object that is configured for task based parallelism.
