Hi Valerie, Thanks for your reply. I can make it work using snow I believe. But the problem is that all functions in these packages that you have suggested (including snow; as far as I have seen) return the answer to one node and then if I want all nodes to have the same answer I will need to broadcast it to all nodes or repeat the same operation. This is very prohibitive, requiring a lot of communication. On the other hand if I could use MPI functionality, allGather would cut the operation to half (if not more, given the size of the communication that will be needed. I haven't been able to find a package with a functionality similar to allGather that will work without MPI. With larger dataset sizes, this problem becomes more threatening and that is just the opposite of what drives us to use parallelism. I don't know if there is any other option, maybe we can't do better, but I thought I'll let you know what my problem is and maybe you'll suggest a better way to deal with it. Thank you again.
