Member Function Documentation

int MachineBroker::startActor ( char * actorProgram,

Channel & theChannel,

int compDemand = 0 ) [pure virtual]

Invoked to start the program, {actorProgram}, on the parallel machine. The remote actor process uses information supplied by {theChannel} to allow the remote process to connect to the local process. The integer {compDemand} provides an indication of the computational demands of the remote process in a heterogeneous environment.
