Parallel computation using Julia
Advancement in modern computing has led to multi-core CPUs in systems and sometimes these systems are combined together in a cluster capable of performing a task which a single system might not be able to perform alone, or if it did it would take an undesirable amount of time. Julia's environment of parallel processing is based on message passing. Multiple processes are allowed for programs in separate memory domains.
Message passing is implemented differently in Julia from other popular environments such as MPI. Julia provides one-sided communication, therefore the programmer explicitly manages only one process in the two-process operation.
Julia's parallel programming paradigm is built on the following:
