function myoutput = gibbs_random_walk_metropolis_hastings_core(myinputs,fblck,nblck,whoiam, ThisMatlab)
% PARALLEL CONTEXT
% This function contain the most computationally intensive portion of code in
% random_walk_metropolis_hastings (the 'for xxx = fblck:nblck' loop). The branches in 'for'
% cycle and are completely independent than suitable to be executed in parallel way.
%
% INPUTS
%   o myimput            [struc]     The mandatory variables for local/remote
%                                    parallel computing obtained from random_walk_metropolis_hastings.m
%                                    function.
%   o fblck and nblck    [integer]   The Metropolis-Hastings chains.
%   o whoiam             [integer]   In concurrent programming a modality to refer to the differents thread running in parallel is needed.
%                                    The integer whoaim is the integer that
%                                    allows us to distinguish between them. Then it is the index number of this CPU among all CPUs in the
%                                    cluster.
%   o ThisMatlab         [integer]   Allows us to distinguish between the
%                                    'main' matlab, the slave matlab worker, local matlab, remote matlab,
%                                     ... Then it is the index number of this slave machine in the cluster.
% OUTPUTS
%   o myoutput  [struc]
%               If executed without parallel is the original output of 'for b =
%               fblck:nblck' otherwise a portion of it computed on a specific core or
%               remote machine. In this case:
%                               record;
%                               irun;
%                               NewFile;
%                               OutputFileName
%
% ALGORITHM
%   Portion of Metropolis-Hastings.
%
% SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS.
%   None.

% PARALLEL CONTEXT
% The most computationally intensive part of this function may be executed
% in parallel. The code sutable to be executed in parallel on multi core or cluster machine,
% is removed from this function and placed in random_walk_metropolis_hastings_core.m funtion.
% Then the DYNARE parallel package contain a set of pairs matlab functios that can be executed in
% parallel and called name_function.m and name_function_core.m.
% In addition in the parallel package we have second set of functions used
% to manage the parallel computation.
%
% This function was the first function to be parallelized, later other
% functions have been parallelized using the same methodology.
% Then the comments write here can be used for all the other pairs of
% parallel functions and also for management funtions.
