FAST TRANSITIONS FOR MASSIVELY PARALLEL COMPUTING APPLICATIONS

摘要

Embodiments relate to facilitating quick and graceful transitions for massively parallel computing applications. A computer-implemented method for facilitating termination of a plurality of threads of a process is provided. The method maintains information about open communications between one or more of the threads of the process and one or more of other processes. In response to receiving a command to terminate one or more of the threads of the process, the method completes the open communications on behalf of the threads after terminating the threads.

主权项

1. A computer program product for facilitating termination of a plurality of threads of a process, the computer program product comprising:
a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions readable by a processing circuit to cause the processing circuit to perform a method comprising:
maintaining information about open communications between one or more of the threads of the process and one or more of other processes; andin response to receiving a command to terminate one or more of the threads, completing the open communications on behalf of the threads after terminating the threads.
