CSE6220 Assignment 2, using parallel computing technique to solve n-queen problem

CX4220/CSE 6220 Programming Assignment 2

Code structure

All the code is located at the root level of the project.

There are multiple header and .cpp files, your implementation will go into the following file:

• solver.cpp: Implement the sequential algorithm for nqueen problem, the master and worker functions for parallel nqueen according to the function declarations in solver.h

Other files containing code that you should not change are:

• solver.h: Declares the nqueen functions.
• utils.h and utils.cpp: Implements common utility functions.
• main.cpp: Implements code for the main executable nqueen. This does input/output reading and calling of the actual functions.

Compiling

In order to compile everything, simply run

make

Running

For running on local system, do:

mpirun -np <num_procs> ./nqueen <n> <k>

For running on the PACE cluster, do:

qsub -v p=<num_procs>,n=<number_of_queens>,k=<k> pbs_script.pbs

Submit multiple jobs using shell script:

chmod +x submit_queen.sh
./submit_queen.sh
