Detailed Description

The namespace hosts some generic utilities, it hosts a statistics class (Statistics) and the Blacklist, and it finally hosts a few core load balancing classes.

They are rather primitive. You can construct more sophisticated load balancing schemes from there by combining simple schemes via a Cascade, e.g.

◆ State

enum class toolbox::loadbalancing::State

State descriptor of load balancing.

Any load balancing will run through different states, aka "what will I try to achieve next". Not every load balancing strategy runs through the states in the same order or passes through all states, but these states are kind of a superset of different phases.

We have to define them here to give the configuration objects the opportunity to make state-dependent decisions if and how to refine.

Enumerator
Undefined
InterRankDistribution	Code has not yet spread out over all ranks but would like to do so now.
IntraRankDistribution	Code has spread over all ranks, but it has not spread over all cores yet, i.e. there's around one tree per rank and that's it w.r.t. the global decomposition.
InterRankBalancing	We have completed the first two phases and try to balance between the ranks now to meet the load balancing quality.
IntraRankBalancing	The code is satisfied with the load balancing quality between the ranks and now spawns more partitions per rank to increase the per-rank concurrency.
WaitForRoundRobinToken	You usually don't get this state when we query the configuration, i.e. if the lb on a rank is in this state, then it will not ask the configuration.
Stagnation	You usually don't get this state when we query the configuration, i.e. if the lb on a rank is in this state, then it will not ask the configuration.
SwitchedOff	You usually don't get this state when we query the configuration, i.e. if the lb on a rank is in this state, then it will not ask the configuration.
