Research and Application of Parallel Computing under Linux

Abstract:

Parallel computing is in parallel computer system for parallel processing of data and information, often also known as the high performance computing or super computing. The content of parallel computing were introduced, the realization of parallel computing and MPI parallel programming under Linux environment were described. The parallel algorithm based on divide and conquer method to solve rectangle placemen problem was designed and implemented with two processors. Finally, Through the performance testing and comparison, we verified the efficiency of parallel computing.
