Server Listening
This function is not intended to be called directly by the user. It is
an internal-only function to prevent cluster problems while using the
INCA algorithm in the LaplacesDemon.hpc function.
server_Listening(n=2, port=19009)
n |
This is the number of CPUs. For more information, see

port |
This is a port for server listening, and defaults to
port |
For the INCA algorithm, a server has been built into the
LaplacesDemon.hpc function. The server exchanges information
between processes, and has been designed to be portable. The
server_Listening function is run as a separate process via the
system function, when INCA is selected in
LaplacesDemon.hpc.
Socket connections and the serialize function are used as per
the Snow package to update a single proposal covariance matrix
given all parallel chains. The sockets are opened/closed in each
process with a small random sleep time to avoid collisions during
connections to the internal server of
LaplacesDemon.hpc. Blocking sockets are used to synchronize
processes.
