The Mosel module
mmjobs enables the user to
work with several models concurrently. We show here
a series of examples of basic tasks that typically need
to be performed when working with several models in Mosel:
Parallel computing:
- Running a submodel from another Mosel model: runtestsub.mos (main model
executing testsub.mos)
- Retrieving termination status from submodels (means of coordination of different models):
runsubevnt.mos (main model executing testsub.mos)
- Retrieving user event sent by the submodel:
runsubevnt2.mos (main model executing testsubev.mos)
- Stopping a submodel: runsubwait.mos (main model
executing testsub.mos)
- Compiling to memory: runsubmem.mos (main model
executing testsub.mos)
- Setting runtime parameters: runrtparam.mos (main model
executing rtparams.mos)
- Sequential execution of submodels: runrtparseq.mos
(main model executing rtparams.mos)
- Parallel execution of submodels: runrtparprl.mos
(main model executing rtparams.mos)
- Parallel execution with cloning of submodels: runrtparclone.mos
(main model executing rtparams.mos)
- Job queue for parallel execution of submodels: runrtparqueue.mos
(main model executing rtparams.mos)
- Using the shmem (shared memory) I/O driver for data exchange (bin format): runsubshm.mos
(main model executing testsubshm.mos)
- Using the shmem (shared memory) I/O driver for data exchange (raw format): runsubshmr.mos
(main model executing testsubshmr.mos)
- Using the mempipe (memory pipe) I/O driver for data exchange:
runsubpip.mos (main model executing testsubpip.mos)
- Sharing data between cloned models:
runsubclone.mos (main model executing a copy of itself)
Distributed computing:
- Check for available remote Mosel servers: findservers.mos
- Run a single model on a remote machine: runrtdistr.mos (main model
executing rtparams.mos)
- Run a single model on a remote machine with
configuration options: runrtdistrconf.mos (main model
executing rtparams.mos)
- Running parallel submodels in a distributed architecture: runrtpardistr.mos (main model
executing rtparams3.mos)
- Queuing submodels for parallel execution in a distributed
architecture with one or several models per node: runrtparqueued.mos (main model
executing rtparams3.mos)
- 3-level tree of (parallel) submodels: runrtpartree.mos (main model
executing rtparams2.mos)
- Running a submodel that detaches itself from its parent: runrtdetach.mos (main model
executing rtparams4.mos)
- Using the shmem (shared memory) I/O driver for data exchange (bin format): runsubshmdistr.mos
(main model executing testsubshm.mos)
