 #### Training in a cluster
 
+To run the distributed Hogwild framework, configure the cluster.conf as:
+
+    nworker_groups: 2
+    nserver_groups: 2
+
+and start one process as,
+    
+    ./bin/singa-run.sh -model=... -cluster=...
+
+and then start another process as,
+ 
+    ./singa -model=... -cluster=...

+that the example/cifar10 folder is in NFS.
