#1151: Terminology for nodes, processes and cores is confusing -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: hinder | Owner: eschnett Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: SimFactory | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: -------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Comment (by barry.wardell):
The main confusion is that procs could mean either processors or processes. SimFactory uses procs with the implied meaning of processors, whereas most people seem to expect it to mean processes. Would a rename of 'procs' to 'cores' eliminate all of the confusion?
