Android application (Server Module) to simulate Parallel Computing using several android devices. This application makes use of the Merge Sort algorithm for simulation purpose.
For Client Module Check Repo: https://github.com/roshanlas/Parallel-Mergesort-Client
The server application distributes the processing task among all connected Client devices. In case of multiple Clients performing parallel computing, the Server does the final Merge operation.
This application was developed for learning purposes. This technique, if implemented at the kernal level with a faster communication mechanism, will help to distribute the processing of an android device among several others.
To simulate parallel computing:
- Run the ParallelServer application on one device.
- Run the ParallelClient application on other devices. The server can support upto 10 clients.
- Make sure that both the Client and Server devices are on the same network.
- Enter the Server's IP address and port number in the client devices and press Connect.
- Generate a Random Array of integers on the server device and press Execute.
