Packages

Pre-built binary packages are available for Ubuntu only at the moment. codyn.net provides an Ubuntu repository for both 32 and 64 bits Ubuntu precise. The repository is located at https://packages.codyn.net/ubuntu/. For more information on configuring the repository and installing the packages, please see: https://packages.codyn.net/ubuntu/README. After the repository is configured, the following packages can be installed:

Libraries

1. liboptimization2: a C++ library providing useful classes for communication in the optimization framework
2. liboptimization2-sharp: a C# library providing a base for the implementation of optimization algorithms in the framework
3. liboptimizers2-sharp: a C# library using liboptimization2-sharp which implements a variety of optimization algorithhms

Core applications

1. optiworker: the worker daemon which is responsible for dispatching tasks
2. optimaster: the master daemon which is responsible for distributing tasks to available workers
3. optirunner: the client application which runs the optimization algorithm and sends tasks to the master
4. optiextractor: a GUI application to view optimization results
5. opticommand: a simple command line application to query the master for information

Dispatchers

1. liboptimization2-dispatchers-blender: a dispatcher for blender
2. liboptimization2-dispatchers-external: a dispatcher running an external program
3. liboptimization2-dispatchers-matlab: a dispatcher for running tasks in matlab
