Optimizing N-queen with openmp

I am learning OPENMP and wrote the following code to solve nqueens problem. //Full Code: https://github.com/Shafaet/Codes/blob/master/OPENMP/Parallel%20N- Queen%20problem.cpp int n; int call(int col,int rowmask,int dia1,int dia2) { if(col==n) { return 1; } int row,ans=0; for(row=0;row<n;row++) { if(!(rowmask & (1<<row)) & !(dia1 & (1<<(row+col))) & !(dia2 & (1<<((row+n-1)-col)))) { ans+=call(col+1,rowmask|1<<row,dia1|(1<<(row+col)), dia2|(1<<((row+n-1)-col))); } } return ans; } double parallel() { double st=omp_get_wtime(); int ans=0; int i; int rowmask=0,dia1=0,dia2=0; #pragma omp parallel

Turn off OpenMP

梦想与她 提交于 2019-12-05 19:52:01
In my C++ program, I'd like to run its executable sometimes with and sometimes without using OpenMP (i.e. multi-threading or single-threading). I am considering any of the following two cases how my code is using OpenMP: (1) Assume that my code is only having #include <omp.h> and OpenMP directives. (2) Same as (1) and my code further calls OpenMP functions like omp_get_thread_num() . In order not to have different code for different running, is it the only way using some self-defined precompiler variable to guard where OpenMP appears in my code ? Thanks and regards!

Why POSIX Threads are Slower Than OpenMP

青春壹個敷衍的年華 提交于 2019-12-05 19:30:23
问题 I'm running a completely parallel matrix multiplication program on a Mac Pro with a Xeon processor. I create 8 threads (as many threads as cores), and there are no shared writing issues (no writing to the same locations). For some reason, my use of pthread_create and pthread_join is about twice as slow as using #pragma openmp . There are no other differences in anything... same compile options, same number of threads in both cases, same code (except the pragma/ pthread portions obviously),

Parallelize while loop with OpenMP

偶尔善良 提交于 2019-12-05 19:00:36
问题 I have a very large data file, and each record in this data file has 4 lines. I have written a very simple C program to analyze files of this type and print out some useful information. The basic idea of the program is this. int main() { char buffer[BUFFER_SIZE]; while(fgets(buffer, BUFFER_SIZE, stdin)) { fgets(buffer, BUFFER_SIZE, stdin); do_some_simple_processing_on_the_second_line_of_the_record(buffer); fgets(buffer, BUFFER_SIZE, stdin); fgets(buffer, BUFFER_SIZE, stdin); } print_out

What preprocessor define does -fopenmp provide?

感情迁移 提交于 2019-12-05 18:27:50
I've got some code that can run with (or without) OpenMP - it depends on how the user sets up the makefile. If they want to run with OpenMP, then they just add -fopenmp to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS . I'm trying to determine what preprocessor macro I can use to tell when -fopenmp is in effect. The omp.h header does not look very interesting: $ cat /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.8/include/omp.h | grep define #define OMP_H 1 #define _LIBGOMP_OMP_LOCK_DEFINED 1 # define __GOMP_NOTHROW throw () # define __GOMP_NOTHROW __attribute__((__nothrow__)) And I can't get the preprocessor to offer up anything

OpenMP in Fortran

廉价感情. 提交于 2019-12-05 18:03:41
I very rarely use fortran, however I have been tasked with taking legacy code rewriting it to run in parallel. I'm using gfortran for my compiler choice. I found some excellent resources at https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/openMP/ as well as a few others. My problem is this, before I add any OpenMP directives, if I simply compile the legacy program: gfortran Example1.F90 -o Example1 everything works, but turning on the openmp compiler option even without adding directives: gfortran -openmp Example1.F90 -o Example1 ends up with a Segmentation fault when I run the legacy program. Using

Is it possible to parallelize this for loop?

三世轮回 提交于 2019-12-05 17:15:36
I was given some code to paralellize using OpenMP and, among the various function calls, I noticed this for loop takes some good guilt on the computation time. double U[n][n]; double L[n][n]; double Aprime[n][n]; for(i=0; i<n; i++) { for(j=0; j<n; j++) { if (j <= i) { double s; s=0; for(k=0; k<j; k++) { s += L[j][k] * U[k][i]; } U[j][i] = Aprime[j][i] - s; } else if (j >= i) { double s; s=0; for(k=0; k<i; k++) { s += L[j][k] * U[k][i]; } L[j][i] = (Aprime[j][i] - s) / U[i][i]; } } However, after trying to parallelize it and applying some semaphores here and there (with no luck), I came to the

Thread IDs with PPL and Parallel Memory Allocation

♀尐吖头ヾ 提交于 2019-12-05 17:01:23
I have a question about the Microsoft PPL library, and parallel programming in general. I am using FFTW to perform a large set (100,000) of 64 x 64 x 64 FFTs and inverse FFTs. In my current implementation, I use a parallel for loop and allocate the storage arrays within the loop. I have noticed that my CPU usage only tops out at about 60-70% in these cases. (Note this is still better utilization than the built in threaded FFTs provided by FFTW which I have tested). Since I am using fftw_malloc, is it possible that excessive locking is occurring which is preventing full usage? In light of this,

Matlab limits TBB but not OpenMP

拜拜、爱过 提交于 2019-12-05 16:42:10
I'm only asking this to try to understand what I've spent 24 hours trying to fix. My system: Ubuntu 12.04.2, Matlab R2011a, both of them 64-bit, Intel Xeon processor based on Nehalem. The problem is simply, Matlab allows OpenMP based programs to utilize all CPU cores with hyper-threading enabled but does not allow the same for TBB. When running TBB, I can launch only 4 threads, even when I change the maxNumCompThreads to 8. While with OpenMP I can use all the threads I want. Without Hyper-threading, both TBB and OpenMP utilize all 4 cores of course. I understand Hyper-threading and that its
