AFNI Message Board

Dear AFNI users-

We are very pleased to announce that the new AFNI Message Board framework is up! Please join us at:

https://discuss.afni.nimh.nih.gov

Existing user accounts have been migrated, so returning users can login by requesting a password reset. New users can create accounts, as well, through a standard account creation process. Please note that these setup emails might initially go to spam folders (esp. for NIH users!), so please check those locations in the beginning.

The current Message Board discussion threads have been migrated to the new framework. The current Message Board will remain visible, but read-only, for a little while.

Sincerely, AFNI HQ

There is nothing to stop you from running 16 copies of AFNI at once. But I'm not sure it would be useful for any purpose. What is it that you want to accomplish? Never having used a Beowulf cluster, I'm not sure of the mechanics of starting processes that are locked to a specific node.

The only parallelized parts of the AFNI package at present are 3dDeconvolve and 3dNLfim. These programs can take advantage of multiple CPUs, but only with an SMP system -- the child processes are created via fork() and communicate via SysV IPC shared memory.
