18<p>A distributed property map adaptor is a property map whose stored
19values are distributed across multiple non-overlapping memory spaces
20on different processes. Values local to the current process are stored
21within a local property map and may be immediately accessed via
22<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">get</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">put</span></tt>. Values stored on remote processes may also be
23accessed via <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">get</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">put</span></tt>, but the behavior differs slightly:</p>
24<blockquote>
25<ul class="simple">
26<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">put</span></tt> operations update a local ghost cell and send a &quot;put&quot;
27message to the process that owns the value. The owner is free to
28update its own &quot;official&quot; value or may ignore the put request.</li>
29<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">get</span></tt> operations returns the contents of the local ghost
30cell. If no ghost cell is available, one is created using a
31(customizable) default value.</li>
32</ul>
33</blockquote>
34<p>Using distributed property maps requires a bit more care than using
35local, sequential property maps. While the syntax and semantics are
36similar, distributed property maps may contain out-of-date
37information that can only be guaranteed to be synchronized by
38calling the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">synchronize</span></tt> function in all processes.</p>
39<p>To address the issue of out-of-date values, distributed property
40maps support multiple <a class="reference internal" href="#consistency-models">consistency models</a> and may be supplied with a
41<a class="reference internal" href="#reduction-operation">reduction operation</a>.</p>
42<p>Distributed property maps meet the requirements of the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.boost.org/libs/property_map/ReadablePropertyMap.html">Readable
43Property Map</a> and, potentially, the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.boost.org/libs/property_map/WritablePropertyMap.html">Writable Property Map</a> and
44<a class="reference external" href="http://www.boost.org/libs/property_map/ReadWritePropertyMap.html">Read/Write Property Map</a> concepts. Distributed property maps do
45<em>not</em>, however, meet the requirements of the <a class="reference external" href="http://www.boost.org/libs/property_map/LvaluePropertyMap.html">Lvalue Property Map</a>
46concept, because elements residing in another process are not
47directly addressible. There are several forms of distributed property
48maps:</p>

57<div class="section" id="consistency-models">
58<h1>Consistency models</h1>
59<p>Distributed property maps offer many consistency models, which affect
60how the values read from and written to remote keys relate to the
61&quot;official&quot; value for that key stored in the owning process. The
62consistency model of a distributed property map can be set with the
63member function <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">set_consistency_model</span></tt> to a bitwise-OR of the
64flags in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">boost::parallel::consistency_model</span></tt> enumeration. The
65individual flags are:</p>
66<blockquote>
67<ul class="simple">
68<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_forward</span></tt>: The default consistency model, which propagates
69values forward from <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">put</span></tt> operations on remote processors to
70the owner of the value being changed.</li>
71<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_backward</span></tt>: After all values have been forwarded or flushed
72to the owning processes, each process receives updates values for
73each of its ghost cells. After synchronization, the values in
74ghost cells are guaranteed to match the values stored on the
75owning processor.</li>
76<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_bidirectional</span></tt>: A combination of both <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_forward</span></tt> and
77<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_backward</span></tt>.</li>
78<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_flush</span></tt>: At the beginning of synchronization, all of the
79values stored locally in ghost cells are sent to their owning
80processors.</li>
81<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_reset</span></tt>: Executes a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">reset()</span></tt> operation after
82synchronization, setting the values in each ghost cell to their
83default value.</li>
84<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_clear</span></tt>: Executes a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">clear()</span></tt> operation after
85synchronizing, eliminating all ghost cells.</li>
86</ul>
87</blockquote>
88<p>There are several common combinations of flags that result in
89interesting consistency models. Some of these combinations are:</p>
90<blockquote>
91<ul class="simple">
92<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_forward</span></tt>: By itself, the forward consistency model enables
93algorithms such as <a class="reference external" href="dijkstra_shortest_paths.html">Dijkstra's shortest paths</a> and
94<a class="reference external" href="breadth_first_search.html">Breadth-First Search</a> to operate correctly.</li>
95<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">cm_flush</span> <span class="pre">&amp;</span> <span class="pre">cm_reset</span></tt>: All updates values are queued locally,
96then flushed during the synchronization step. Once the flush has
97occurred, the ghost cells are restored to their default
98values. This consistency model is used by the <a class="reference external" href="page_rank.html">PageRank</a>
99implementation to locally accumulate rank for each node.</li>
100</ul>
101</blockquote>
102</div>
103<div class="section" id="reduction-operation">
104<h1>Reduction operation</h1>
105<p>The reduction operation maintains consistency by determining how
106multiple writes to a property map are resolved and what the property
107map should do if unknown values are requested. More specifically, a
108reduction operation is used in two cases:</p>
109<blockquote>
110<ol class="arabic simple">
111<li>When a value is needed for a remote key but no value is
112immediately available, the reduction operation provides a
113suitable default. For instance, a distributed property map
114storing distances may have a reduction operation that returns
115an infinite value as the default, whereas a distributed
116property map for vertex colors may return white as the
117default.</li>
118<li>When a value is received from a remote process, the process
119owning the key associated with that value must determine which
120value---the locally stored value, the value received from a
121remote process, or some combination of the two---will be
122stored as the &quot;official&quot; value in the property map. The
123reduction operation transforms the local and remote values
124into the &quot;official&quot; value to be stored.</li>
125</ol>
126</blockquote>
127<p>The reduction operation of a distributed property map can be set with
128the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">set_reduce</span></tt> method of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">distributed_property_map</span></tt>. The reduce
129operation is a function object with two signatures. The first
130signature takes a (remote) key and returns a default value for it,
131whereas the second signatures takes a key and two values (local first,
132then remote) and will return the combined value that will be stored in
133the local property map.  Reduction operations must also contain a
134static constant <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">non_default_resolver&quot;,</span> <span class="pre">which</span> <span class="pre">states</span> <span class="pre">whether</span> <span class="pre">the</span>
135<span class="pre">reduction</span> <span class="pre">operation's</span> <span class="pre">default</span> <span class="pre">value</span> <span class="pre">actually</span> <span class="pre">acts</span> <span class="pre">like</span> <span class="pre">a</span> <span class="pre">default</span>
136<span class="pre">value.</span> <span class="pre">It</span> <span class="pre">should</span> <span class="pre">be</span> <span class="pre">``true</span></tt> when the default is meaningful (e.g.,
137infinity for a distance) and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">false</span></tt> when the default should not be
138used.</p>
139<p>The following reduction operation is used by the distributed PageRank
140algorithm. The default rank for a remote node is 0. Rank is
141accumulated locally, and then the reduction operation combines local
142and remote values by adding them. Combined with a consistency model
143that flushes all values to the owner and then resets the values
144locally in each step, the resulting property map will compute partial
145sums on each processor and then accumulate the results on the owning
146processor. The PageRank reduction operation is defined as follows.</p>
147<pre class="literal-block">
148template&lt;typename T&gt;
