Data parallel array indices are divided into two types.
|
||||
|
||||
* Internal indices, such as complex, colour, spin degrees of freedom
|
||||
* spatial (space-time) indices.
|
||||
|
||||
The ranges of all internal degrees are determined by template parameters,
|
||||
and known at compile time. The ranges of spatial indices are dynamic, run time
|
||||
values and the Cartesian structure information is contained and accessed via `Grid` objects.
|
||||
|
||||
Grid objects are the controlling entity for the decomposition of a distributed `Lattice`
|
||||
array across MPI tasks, nodes, SIMD lanes, accelerators. Threaded loops are used
|
||||
as appropriate on host code.
|
||||
|
||||
Data parallel operations can only be performed between Lattice objects constructed
|
||||
from the same Grid pointer. These are called `conformable` operations.
|
||||
|
||||
We will focus initially on the internal indices as these are the building blocks assembled
|
||||
in Lattice container classes. Every Lattice container class constructor requires a Grid object
|
||||
pointer.
