Detailed Description

template<int N>
class DdMd::GroupDistributor< N >

Class template for distributing Group<N> objects among processors.

A GroupDistributor is used to distribute items among processors during startup, when the master process must read a configuration file. Each ConfigIo has a GroupDistributor for each group type.

Precondition:

The usage pattern described below must be invoked after all local atoms are distributed, but when there are no ghosts.

Usage:

GroupDistributor  distributor;
GroupStorage<N>   groupStorage;
Domain&           domain;
AtomStorage       atomStorage, 
Buffer            buffer;
distributor.associate(Domain, atomStorage, GroupStorage, buffer);
DArray<int>       atomOwners;
Group<N>*         ptr;
if (rank = 0) {  // If master processor
   distributor.setup();
   // Read from file
   std::ifstream file
   for (i = 0; i < nGroup; ++i) {
       ptr = distributor.newPtr();
       // Read properties of Group<N> *ptr from file
       file >> ptr->position();
       // ...
       // Cache active Group<N> for sending.
       distributor.add();
   }
   // Send all remaining.
   distributor.send();
} else { // If not master processor
   distributor.receive();
}

The add(groupStorage) method can send items if required by memory limits, and the send() method then sends all remaining groups.

Posconditions:

At the end end of the above pattern, each processor has a copy of every Group that contains one or more Atoms that it owns.
All pointers to local atoms are set, and pointer to missing atoms are set to null. Missing atoms will later be assigned to ghosts.

template<int N>

void DdMd::GroupDistributor< N >::associate	(	Domain &	domain,
		AtomStorage &	atomStorage,
		GroupStorage< N > &	groupStorage,
		Buffer &	buffer
	)

Create required associations with related objects.

Parameters

domain	associated Domain object defines the processor grid
atomStorage	associated AtomStorage manages memory for atoms
groupStorage	associated GroupStorage manages memory for groups
buffer	associated buffer provides memory for communication

template<int N>

void DdMd::GroupDistributor< N >::setup ( )

Initialize Buffer for sending.

template<int N>

void DdMd::GroupDistributor< N >::setCapacity ( int cacheCapacity )

Set cacheCapacity, allocate memory and initialize object.

This method sets cacheCapacity from file, and then goes through the same initialization steps as readParam.

Parameters

cacheCapacity max number of groups cached for sending

References UTIL_THROW.

template<int N>

void DdMd::GroupDistributor< N >::readParameters ( std::istream & in )

virtual

Read cacheCapacity, allocate memory and initialize object.

This method and setParam both allocate all required memory and initialize the GroupDistributor. Memory for a temporary read cache is alocated only on the master.

Preconditions: The initialize method must have been called, the Buffer must be allocated, and the Domain must be initialized.

Parameters

in	input stream from which parameter is read.

Reimplemented from Util::ParamComposite.

Definition at line 82 of file GroupDistributor.tpp.

template<int N>

Group< N > * DdMd::GroupDistributor< N >::newPtr ( )

Returns pointer an address available for a new Group<N>.

This method should be called only by the master processor. It returns the address within the internal cache for a new Group<N> object. Each call to newPtr() must be followed by a matching call to add().
