Abstract

Purpose

In recent years, there is a gradual shift from sequential computing to parallel computing. Nowadays, nearly all computers are of multicore processors. To exploit the available cores, parallel computing becomes necessary. It increases speed by processing huge amount of data in real time. The purpose of this paper is to parallelize a set of well-known programs using different techniques to determine best way to parallelize a program experimented.

Design/methodology/approach

A set of numeric algorithms are parallelized using hand parallelization using OpenMP and auto parallelization using Pluto tool.

Findings

The work discovers that few of the algorithms are well suited in auto parallelization using Pluto tool but many of the algorithms execute more efficiently using OpenMP hand parallelization.

Originality/value

The work provides an original work on parallelization using OpenMP programming paradigm and Pluto tool.
