Abstract

A system and method for launching parallel processes on a server configured to process a number of parallel processes. A request is received from a parallel application to start a number of parallel processes. In response to this request a launcher creates a surrogate. The surrogate inherits communications channels from the launcher. The surrogate then executes activities related to the launch of the parallel processes, and then launches the parallel processes. The parallel processes are launched and the surrogate is terminated.
