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.

Installing Scioto

Scioto depends on Global Arrays and MPI. Detailed installation instructions are included in the README file.
