    <p>No. multithread programming means that you have a single process, and this process generates a bunch of threads. All the threads are running at the same time, but they are all under the same process space: they can access the same memory, have the same open file descriptors, and so on.</p> <p>Parallel programming is a bit more "general" as a definition. in MPI, you perform parallel programming by running the same process multiple times, with the difference that every process gets a different "identifier", so if you want, you can differentiate each process, but it is not required. Also, these processes are independent from each other, and they have to communicate via pipes, or network/unix sockets. MPI libraries provide specific functions to move data to-and-fro the nodes, in synchronous or asynchronous style.</p> <p>In contrast, OpenMP achieves parallelization via multithreading and shared-memory. You specify special directives to the compiler, and it automagically performs parallel execution for you.</p> <p>The advantage of OpenMP is that it is very transparent. Have a loop to parallelize? just add a couple of directives and the compiler chunks it in pieces, and assign each piece of the loop to a different processor. Unfortunately, you need a shared-memory architecture for this. Clusters having a node-based architecture are not able to use OpenMP at the cluster level. MPI allows you to work on a node-based architecture, but you have to pay the price of a more complex and not transparent usage.</p>

    1. COow, so it's mean 1 job is processed by n process not 1 job is processed by n thread

    2. COI seem to recall that work _is_ being done on OpenMP-style parallelization for multi-process architectures... I can't remember if it's part of OpenMP itself, or something else?

    3. CO@Eko : not exactly. MPI starts n instances of the same program, each one with a different id number in a special variable (look for MPI_Comm_Rank). What to do with those n instances is up to you.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
