Estimating the term…
Developing collective operations for a parallel computer that includes compute nodes includes: presenting, by a collective development tool, a graphical user interface (‘GUI’) to a collective developer; receiving, by the collective development tool from the collective developer through the GUI, a selection of one or more collective primitives; receiving, by the collective development tool from the collective developer through the GUI, a specification of a serial order of the collective primitives and a specification of input and output buffers for each collective primitive; and generating, by the collective development tool in dependence upon the selection of collective primitives, the serial order of the collective primitives, and the input and output buffers for each collective primitive, executable code that carries out the collective operation specified by the collective primitives.
