Greetings,<br><br>I was wondering, whether mpich2 can be used in the following scenario:<br><br>Client-Server application, where N clients send data to server, at random moments<br>in time, and server must collect them all, not caring much from whence the data came.<br>
<br>sort of like this:<br><br>SERVER: while(true) { recieve something from anybody}<br><br>CLIENT1: if (i feel like it) {send something to server }<br>...<br>CLIENTN: if (i feel like it) {send something to server }<br><br>
<br>The problem is this - i don't really know what sort of interaction this is in professional terms (is it synchronous, asynchronous, another kind?) and therefore what function i must look up in my reference manual pages.<br>
<br>Also, there is another snag, the size of the data, being sent, is unknown (a random sized block of data)?<br><br>I'd love to hear some opinions and advice on the matter<br><br><br>Thanks in advance<br><br>Eugene<br>
