Parallel computation on a cluster #36

Open talmiller2 opened 11 months ago

talmiller2 commented 11 months ago

Is there a code example for implementation of parallelizing the optimization on a computer cluster? Thanks

Hi, thank you for your interest in our package!

Since most of the algorithms are designed to blackbox-optimize one objective function, and most of them are very fast (should finish 10k steps in seconds), we have not considered the parallel computing case.

Could you be more specific on your problem setting and why you would need parallelize the optimization? Thanks!
