Release Notes

New features

  • Runtime:
    • Support for Elasticity in SLURM-managed clusters.
    • Support for Elasticity in Singularity containers.
    • Integration of Decaf flows as COMPSs tasks.
    • Changed integratedtoolkit packages by es.bsc.compss packages (requires changes in Java application codes).
  •  Python:
    • Support for Decaf flows as tasks.
    • External decorators (MPI, Binary, Decaf, etc.) extended with streams and prefixes support.
    • Support for applications that use the argparse library.
    • Support for dictionary unrolling on the task call.
  • C/C++:
    • Persistent worker in c-binding.
    • Inter-task object cache.
    • Support for object and static methods.
    • Support for applications with threads in the master code.
  •  Tools:
    • Visualization of not-running tasks in current graph of the COMPSs Monitor

Improvements

  • Improved integration with Jupyter-notebook
  • Improvements in  runtime clean-up (Unused files removal)
  • Several bug fixes

Known Limitations:

  • Tasks that invoke Numpy and MKL may experience issues if tasks use a different number of MKL threads. This is due to the fact that MKL reuses threads in the different calls and it does not change the number of threads from one call to another.
