Query methods
For user's application: Copy following code exactly (till the end of this class) and do NOT change anything. The reason can not put following functions in base class `AlpsParameterSet` is: `boolParams` and `endOfBoolParams` etc. can NOT be declared in base class. They are different types for each derived classes. The members of the parameter set can be queried for using the overloaded entry() method. Using the example in the class documentation the user can get a parameter with the "<code>param.entry(USER_par::parameter_name)</code>" expression.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum AlpsParams::boolParams

Character parameters.

All of these variable are used as booleans (ture = 1, false = 0).

Enumerator
checkMemory	Check memory. Default: false
deleteDeadNode	Remove dead nodes or not. Default: true.
interClusterBalance	Master balances the workload of hubs: centralized. Default: true.
intraClusterBalance	Hub balances the workload of workers: receiver initialized. Default: true
printSolution	Print solution to screen and log if have a solution and msgLevel and logFileLevel permits. Default: false.
endOfBoolParams

Definition at line 40 of file AlpsParams.h.

enum AlpsParams::intParams

Integer paramters.

Enumerator
bufSpare	The size of extra memory allocated to a message buffer. Default: 256 byte
clockType	Type of clock when timing rampup, rampdown, etc. CPU or Wallclock. default: wallclock
eliteSize	Number of the "elite" nodes that are used in determining workload. Default: 1
hubInitNodeNum	The number of nodes initially generated by each hub. Default: 2
hubMsgLevel	Message level of the hub specific messages. (0: no print to screen; 1: summary; 2: moderate; 3: verbose) Default: 0
hubNum	The number of hubs. Default: 1
largeSize	The size of memory allocated for large size message. Default: 10485760
logFileLevel	The level of log file. (0: no log file; 1: summary; 2: moderate; 3: verbose) Default: 0
masterInitNodeNum	The number of nodes initially generated by the master. Default: 2
masterReportInterval	The interval between master report system status. Default: 10
hubWorkClusterSizeLimit	If the number of processes in a cluster is less than it, the hub also work as a worker. Default: 0 (Hub does NOT work)
mediumSize	The size of memory allocated for medium size message. Default: 4096
msgLevel	The level of printing messages on screen. Used to control master and general messages. (0: no print to screen; 1: summary; 2: moderate; 3: verbose) Default: 2
nodeLimit	The max number of nodes can be processed. Default: ALPS_INT_MAX
nodeLogInterval	Node log interval. Default: 100
printSystemStatus	Print system status: 0: do not print, 1: print. Default: 1;
processNum	The total number of processes that are launched for parallel code. Default: 2 Not used since can get actual number of processes from MPI.
staticBalanceScheme	Static load balancing scheme – root initialization (0) – spiral (1)

Enumerator
changeWorkThreshold	The threshold of workload below which a worker will change the subtree that is working on. Default: 0.05
donorThreshold	It is between 1.0 - infty. When the workload in process is more than the average workload timing donorThreshold, it is a donor in load balancing. Defaut: 0.1

masterBalancePeriod	The time period for master to do loading balance/termination check. Default: 0.05
needWorkThreshold	The threshold of workload below which a process will ask for workload Default: 2.
receiverThreshold	It is between 0.0 - 1.0. When the workload in process is less than the average workload timing receiverThreshold, it is a receiver. Default: 0.1
timeLimit	The time limit (in seconds) of search. Default: ALPS_DBL_MAX
tolerance	The numeric tolerance. Default: 1e-6
unitWorkTime	The time length of a unit work. Default: 0.5
zeroLoad	If less than this number, it is considered zero workload. Default: 1e-6
