Appendix C: The Parallel Adaptive Quadrature Routine

B.2. USER’S GUIDE

Outlined below are the steps to run this mpC application (see Appendix D for the full mpC user’s guide):

• Create a new virtual parallel machine, say, vpm,

  mpccreate vpm 

• or open the existing virtual parallel machine vpm,

  mpcopen vpm 

  A newly created virtual parallel machine is opened immediately after successful completion of the mpccreate command.

• Compile the mpC sorce code

  mpcc hmxm.mpc

• Copy the file hmxm.c produced by the mpC compiler into the $MPCLOAD directory

  cp hmxm.c $MPCLOAD

• Broadcast the file hmxm.c to other computers constituting the virtual parallel machine

  mpcbcast hmxm.c

• Produce the executable on each participating computer

  mpcload -het -o hmxm hmxm.c 

• Run the executable

  mpcrun hmxm

• The output will be of the form

  Problem size=108, time(sec)=0.262353, time(min)=0.004373
