Hi all,

I am working on a parallel tempering MCMC code using OpenMPI scripts. I am a
bit confused about proposing swaps between chains running on different
cores.
I know how to propose swaps but I am not sure as to where to to do it (i.e.
how to specify an independent node or core for it.). If some body is/was
working on parallel tempering MCMC using MPI then please help me. An example
code would be really helpful.

Cheers,

Asad
