CORE MODULES

Three modules make up the core engine for MCE.

MCE::Core

Provides the Core API for Many-Core Engine. The various MCE options are described here.

MCE::Signal

Temporary directory creation, cleanup, and signal handling.

MCE::Util

Utility functions for Many-Core Engine.

MCE EXTRAS

There are 4 add-on modules for use with MCE.

MCE::Candy

Provides a collection of sugar methods and output iterators for preserving output order.

MCE::Mutex

Provides a simple semaphore implementation supporting threads and processes.

MCE::Queue

Provides a hybrid queuing implementation for MCE supporting normal queues and priority queues from a single module. MCE::Queue exchanges data via the core engine to enable queuing to work for both children (spawned from fork) and threads.

MCE::Relay

Enables workers to receive and pass on information orderly with zero involvement by the manager process while running.

MCE MODELS

The models take Many-Core Engine to a new level for ease of use. Two options (chunk_size and max_workers) are configured automatically as well as spawning and shutdown.

MCE::Loop

Provides a parallel loop utilizing MCE for building creative loops.

MCE::Flow

A parallel flow model for building creative applications. This makes use of user_tasks in MCE. The author has full control when utilizing this model. MCE::Flow is similar to MCE::Loop, but allows for multiple code blocks to run in parallel with a slight change to syntax.

MCE::Grep

Provides a parallel grep implementation similar to the native grep function.

MCE::Map

Provides a parallel map model similar to the native map function.

MCE::Step

Provides a parallel step implementation utilizing MCE::Queue between user tasks. MCE::Step is a spin off from MCE::Flow with a touch of MCE::Stream. This model, introduced in 1.506, allows one to pass data from one sub-task into the next transparently.

MCE::Stream

Provides an efficient parallel implementation for chaining multiple maps and greps together through user_tasks and MCE::Queue. Like with MCE::Flow, MCE::Stream can run multiple code blocks in parallel with a slight change to syntax from MCE::Map and MCE::Grep.

MISCELLANEOUS

Miscellaneous additions included with the distribution.

MCE::Examples

Describes various demonstrations for MCE including a Monte Carlo simulation.

MCE::Subs

Exports functions mapped directly to MCE methods; e.g. mce_wid. The module allows 3 options; :manager, :worker, and :getter.

REQUIREMENTS

Perl 5.8.0 or later. PDL::IO::Storable is required in scripts running PDL.

• optimized to work with vast amount of data and very large file sets (~ 10,000 - 100,000).
• allows the selective retrieval of only the required files (file masks, ls-lR parsing, recursive search, updates)
• has a built-in repository containing the settings for the most common bioinformatics download needs
• built-in wizard for batch post-processing of downloaded files (archive extraction, file conversion, etc.)
• capable of performing multiple download or update tasks simultaneously

BioDownloader has a built-in repository containing the settings for common bioinformatics file-synchronization needs, including the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) databases. It can post-process downloaded files, including archive extraction and file conversions.
