abstract

The ddlib is an automatic data distribution and redistribution tool
for any MIMD architecture. The data distribution functions provide
seven standard distribution types; broadcast, horizontal, grid,
vertical, horizontal with overlap, grid with overlap, and vertical
with overlap. The above functions are available for both no-host mode
and host-node mode. In the no-host mode, the data is read from a file
and written to a file in a local file system. The file I/O is
performed by the nodes using a global synchronous read/write
mechanism.
