Nested Parallelism Using MPJ Express

Steps to write a nested parallel Java application using MPJ Express and Java OpenMP (JOMP). JOMP can be downloaded from here.

Step 1: Write

• Edit the HybridApp.jomp - the source code is shown in the Figure below. Here we rely on MPJ Express for node parallelism and JOMP for thread parallelism.

Step 2: Translate and Compile

Once we have written our application, we need to translate the .jomp file to .java. Later the Java file is compiled using the Java compiler.

• The code is translated from .jomp to .java by using the command:
  
  
  aamir@barq:~/tmp/jomp> java -cp $MPJ_HOME/lib/mpj.jar:jomp1.0b.jar jomp.compiler.Jomp HybridApp
  
  
  


• Compile the Java application:
  
  aamir@barq:~/tmp/jomp> javac -cp $MPJ_HOME/lib/mpj.jar:.:jomp1.0b.jar HybridApp.java
  
  

Step 3: Execute

• Write machines file:
  
  
  chenab1
  
  chenab2
  
  
  
• Start MPJ Express daemons:
  
  
  aamir@barq:~/tmp/jomp> mpjboot machines
  
  
  
• Run the hybrid code:
  
  aamir@barq:~/tmp/jomp> mpjrun.sh -wdir ~/tmp/jomp -cp $MPJ_HOME/lib/mpj.jar:.:jomp1.0b.jar -np 2 -Djomp.threads=2 -dport 11050 HybridApp
  
  
  Hello from process <1:0>
  Hello from process <1:1>
  Hello from process <0:0>
  Hello from process <0:1>
  

• Halt MPJ Express daemons:
  
  aamir@barq:~/tmp/jomp> mpjhalt machines
