| + | Parallelism is central in the development of NOMAD 4. NOMAD 4 supports OpenMP to use many threads at the same time. Note that it is also possible to compile without OpenMP. It is also possible to limit the number of threads used (parameter ''NB_THREADS_OPENMP''). MPI is not currently supported in NOMAD 4 (it was used in NOMAD 3). | ||

| - | The ''EvaluatorControl'' always pops blocks of points from the evaluation queue, but usually these blocks have only one point. If ''BB_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE'' is more than 1, blocks of this size will be popped. The points inside the block may come from different main threads (if applicable), but they all need to be evaluated with the same ''Evaluator''. | + | The ''EvaluatorControl'' always pops blocks of points from the evaluation queue, but usually these blocks have only one point. If ''BB_MAX_BLOCK_SIZE'' is more than 1, blocks of this size will be popped. The points inside the block may come from different main threads (if applicable), but they all need to be evaluated with the same ''Evaluator''. In this use case, the Evaluator needs to know how to evaluate a block of points. The opportunity condition, if applicable, is verified after all points in the block are evaluated. |
