Well, just like the word "SMP", heterogeneous has a definition which depends on context. If I'm scheduling a job on a cluster, I think it's heterogeneous if some nodes have a different amount of memory or a different clock, or anything which makes their performance non-uniform. Most MPI codes only run as fast as their slowest process. That's the most picky definition, the least is the "do I have to recompile?" definition. -- greg _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
