Unified Interface to Parallelization Back-Ends

v1.5.1 · Jun 27, 2021 · BSD_2_clause + file LICENSE

Description

Unified parallelization framework for multiple back-end, designed for internal package and interactive usage. The main operation is parallel mapping over lists. Supports 'local', 'multicore', 'mpi' and 'BatchJobs' mode. Allows tagging of the parallel operation with a level name that can be later selected by the user to switch on parallel execution for exactly this operation.
