Scioto, or Shared Collections of Task Objects, is a lightweight framework for providing task management on distributed memory machines under one-sided and global-view parallel programming models. Scioto provides locality aware dynamic load balancing and interoperates with MPI, ARMCI, and Global Arrays. Through task parallelism, the Scioto framework provides a solution for overcoming irregularity, load imbalance, and heterogeneity as well as dynamic mapping of computation onto emerging architectures.
