Subject: [Caml-list] Distributed computing libraries
Date: Wed, 6 Jun 2012 12:53:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAHR=VkxRi3G3mtgCmWqByGirJZNjM6vv6y26RKmUsj_wXmnJ_g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi list,

There exists several different "distributed computing libraries" in OCaml:

- Functory http://functory.lri.fr/
- JoCaml http://jocaml.inria.fr/ (not really a library, though)
- Nproc https://github.com/MyLifeLabs/nproc
- OCaml for multicore http://www.algo-prog.info/ocmc/web/ (not a library either)
- Parmap https://gitorious.org/parmap/parmap
- Plasma Map/Reduce http://plasma.camlcity.org/plasma/

And I am pretty sure that this list is not exhaustive, looking at
http://caml.inria.fr/cgi-bin/hump.en.cgi?sort=0&browse=77

Maybe it would be interesting for the community if someone could sum
up the pros and cons of each of this "libraries", and maybe give some
information about their status (still in development, mature, etc)?

With best regards,
Thomas Braibant
