Java Parallel Processing Framework is a set of tools and APIs to facilitate the parallelization of CPU intensive applications, and distribute their execution over a network of heterogenous nodes.
Java Parallel Processing Framework is intended to run in clusters and grids.
Main features:
- an API to delegate the processing of parallelized tasks to local and remote execution services
- a set of APIs and user interface tools to administrate and monitor execution services
- real-time adaptive load balancing capabilities
- scalability up to an arbitrary number of processing nodes
- support for failover and recovery
- limited intrusiveness for existing or legacy code
- a dynamic deployment mechanism, that enables the execution of new, or updated, code without having to deploy onto the grid
- fully documented APIs, administration guide and developer guide
- runs on any platform supporting Java 2 Platform Standard Edition 5.0 (J2SE 1.5)
Enhancements:
- JPPF is now licensed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. Starting from JPPF 1.0 beta1, all releases will be licensed under these terms.
- Prior versions will remain under the terms of the LGPL.
- For the first time, JPPF integrates seamlessly with J2EE. The JPPF Resource Adapter provides J2EE application servers with an access to native grid services.
- Numerous bug fixes, especially with regards to the distributed class loading mechanism.

Parallel::Workers::Backend - The backend is a plugins mechanism to run the worker tasks. Default plugins are implemented for Eval (CODE), SSH and XMLRPC tasks. You can add your own plugin with module name Parallel::Backend::YourTaskModule

SYNOPSIS

use Parallel::Workers::Backend;

my $worker=Parallel::Workers->new(backend=>"Eval");
my $worker=Parallel::Workers->new(backend=>"SSH");
my $worker=Parallel::Workers->new(backend=>"XMLRPC");
my $worker=Parallel::Workers->new(backend=>"YourTaskModule");

Parallel Port Make project is a tool to build FreeBSD ports in parallel to fully take advantage of modern multi-core and processor machines.

Default: pportmake.py --clean -- cleanup --install -job=2 [port1] [portn]

Example: pportmake.py irc/irssi irc/epic

Advanced: pportmake.py -rSvD -j 10 irc/irssi

-h --help Show this help usage message
-c --clean Clean port before compiling
-C --cleanup Clean port after compiling
-d --deinstall Deinstall ports, implied by reinstall
-f --force Force a port and all dependancies to be installed
-G --noconfig Dont recursively configure options
-i --install Install port (default)
-j n --jobs=n Number of threads to use, 1 or 2 per CPU core
is recommended
Default is 2
-O args --options=foo List of arguments to pass to make.
E.g. -O -DX11=yes -DFOO
-r --reinstall Reinstall port and ALL dependancies
-S --maxspeed Try and speed up by maximising CPU usuage.
This may break some ports, use with caution
-w --noclean Dont make clean before compiling
-W --nocleanup Dont make clean after compiling
-v --verbose Be extra verbose
-V --version Show version information
-D --debug Show some debugging info
-P --pretend Dont actually alter the ports

NOTES: It is currently only safe to run 1 copy of this and not have other ports compiling simultaneously

Parallel::Workers::Shared is a simple Perl module.

Parallel::Workers::Shared requires no configuration files or environment variables.

F-Prot Antivirus security software package has various components that help keep your system secure from viruses, backdoors, trojans and other malicious programs. The project includes the RealTime Protector, a memory-resident monitoring utility that observes all files accessed on your system, a Scheduler where you can set the Scanner to make automatic scans or updates on your system at any time and an Updater to manage all signature updates.
For home users using the Linux open-source operating system, we offer F-Prot Antivirus for Linux Workstations. F-Prot Antivirus for Linux Workstations utilizes the renowned F-Prot Antivirus scanning engine for primary scan but has in addition to that a system of internal heuristics devised to search for unknown viruses
F-Prot Antivirus for Linux was especially developed to effectively eradicate viruses threatening workstations running Linux. It provides full protection against macro viruses and other forms of malicious software - including Trojans.
Main features:
- Scans for over 191534 known viruses and their variants
- Ability to perform scheduled scans when used with the cron utility
- Scans hard drives, CD-ROMS, diskettes, network drives, directories and specific files
- Scans for images of boot sector viruses, macro viruses and Trojan Horses
F-Prot Antivirus for Linux Workstations is FREE for use by personal users on personal workstations

Parallel Bladeenc is a true parallel version of the Bladeenc MP3 encoder; it distributes work across CPUs to speed up MP3 encoding. It uses the Message Passing Interface (MPI) for parallelization across SMPs and/or multiple machines. Hence, if you have a 4-way SMP, you can encode your MP3s about 4 times as fast as the regular Bladeenc; if you have two 4-way SMPs, you can encode about 8 times as fast.
The difficult part about parallelization is typically about how to split the problem up into independent (or nearly independent) parts. The structure shown above - assuming that the encode() function was independent of previous calls to encode() - is trivial to parallelize.
For example, if we want to run on four machines, we can split the input file into four parts, give 1/4 of the file to each machine, and let each machine loop over encode() for their portion of the file. Then take the output from each machine, put it in the right order, and write it out to a single output file. Done.
With such a scheme, the more work that you throw at it, the more efficient it will become.
Hence, trying this scheme with small MP3 files will probably not result in any noticeable speedup (in fact, it may be slower than running in serial, because of the added overhead for working in parallel). It is necessary to give the parallel engine enough work to offset the overhead added by the parallel framework. Generally, this is not very much overhead (read on to find out why), but parallel is not free.
Enhancements:
- Fixed minor error that caused an error message from MPICH when shutting down. Thanks to Gary Smith for pointing this out.
