Project Purpose

Parallel Computing Course CS424 | Practical Assesment

TASK 1: Parallel Sum (Multithreading.java)

• Starts an executer that manages a thread pool of size THREAD_COUNT. (Maximum threads in the CPU)
• Runs a task to increment a global sum variable 1000 times. (Execution is assigned to an avalible thread at run-time.)
• Applies three different critical section controls to prevent race-condition.

TASK 2: Parallel Factorial (parallel_factorial.c)

Implements parallel factorial calculation using OpenMP
