Class MSHistogramClu

java.lang.Object

edu.rit.clu.fractal.MSHistogramClu

public class MSHistogramClu
extends java.lang.Object

Class MSHistogramClu is a cluster parallel program that calculates a histogram of the Mandelbrot Set.

Usage: java -Dpj.np=K [-Dpj.schedule=schedule] edu.rit.clu.fractal.MSHistogramClu width height xcenter ycenter resolution maxiter outfile
K = Number of parallel processes
schedule = Load balancing schedule
width = Image width (pixels)
height = Image height (pixels)
xcenter = X coordinate of center point
ycenter = Y coordinate of center point
resolution = Pixels per unit
maxiter = Maximum number of iterations
outfile = Output file name

The program calculates an iteration count i for each pixel in the same way as the MandelbrotSetSeq program, with 0 <= i <= maxiter. The program prints into the output file a histogram of the i values; that is, for each value of i, how many times that value occurred in the image.

The computation is performed in parallel in multiple processors. The program measures the computation's running time, including the time to print the output.
