-- ``host/model``: The host concept is the aggregation of a CPU with a
- network card. Three models exists, but actually, only 2 of them are
- interesting. The "compound" one is simply due to the way our
- internal code is organized, and can easily be ignored. So at the
- end, you have two host models: The default one allows aggregation of
- an existing CPU model with an existing network model, but does not
- allow parallel tasks because these beasts need some collaboration
- between the network and CPU model.
-
- - **default:** Default host model. Currently, CPU:Cas01 and
- network:LV08 (with cross traffic enabled)
- - **compound:** Host model that is automatically chosen if
- you change the network and CPU models
- - **ptask_L07:** Host model somehow similar to Cas01+CM02 but
- allowing "parallel tasks", that are intended to model the moldable
- tasks of the grid scheduling literature.
+- ``host/model``: we have two such models for now.
+
+ - **default:** Default host model. It simply uses the otherwise configured models for cpu, disk and network (i.e. CPU:Cas01,
+ disk:S19 and network:LV08 by default)
+ - **ptask_L07:** This model is mandatory if you plan to use parallel tasks (and useless otherwise). ptasks are intended to
+ model the moldable tasks of the grid scheduling literature. A specific host model is necessary because each such activity
+ has a both compute and communicate components, so the CPU and network models must be mixed together.
