先决条件: MPI –简化分布式计算
消息传递接口(MPI)
是例程的库, 可用于在C或Fortran77中创建并行程序。它允许用户通过创建并行进程来构建并行应用程序, 并在这些进程之间交换信息。
MPI使用两个基本的通信例程:
MPI_Send和MPI_Recv的语法为:
int MPI_Send(void *data_to_send, int send_count, MPI_Datatype send_type, int destination_ID, int tag, MPI_Comm comm);
int MPI_Recv(void *received_data, int receive_count, MPI_Datatype receive_type, int sender_ID, int tag, MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Status *status);
为了降低程序的时间复杂度, 子数组的并行执行是通过运行并行进程来计算其部分和, 然后, 主进程(根进程)计算这些部分和的总和, 以返回子数组的总和。数组。
例子:
Input : {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
Output : Sum of array is 55
Input : {1, 3, 5, 10, 12, 20, 4, 50, 100, 1000}
Output : Sum of array is 1205
注意 -你必须在基于Linux的系统上安装MPI才能执行以下程序。有关详细信息, 请参阅MPI –简化分布式计算
使用以下代码编译并运行程序:
mpicc program_name.c -o object_file
mpirun -np [number of processes] ./object_file
以下是上述主题的实现:
#include <mpi.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
// size of array
#define n 10
int a[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 };
// Temporary array for slave process
int a2[1000];
int main( int argc, char * argv[])
{
int pid, np, elements_per_process, n_elements_recieved;
// np -> no. of processes
// pid -> process id
MPI_Status status;
// Creation of parallel processes
MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
// find out process ID, // and how many processes were started
MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &pid);
MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &np);
// master process
if (pid == 0) {
int index, i;
elements_per_process = n / np;
// check if more than 1 processes are run
if (np > 1) {
// distributes the portion of array
// to child processes to calculate
// their partial sums
for (i = 1; i < np - 1; i++) {
index = i * elements_per_process;
MPI_Send(&elements_per_process, 1, MPI_INT, i, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
MPI_Send(&a[index], elements_per_process, MPI_INT, i, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
}
// last process adds remaining elements
index = i * elements_per_process;
int elements_left = n - index;
MPI_Send(&elements_left, 1, MPI_INT, i, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
MPI_Send(&a[index], elements_left, MPI_INT, i, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
}
// master process add its own sub array
int sum = 0;
for (i = 0; i < elements_per_process; i++)
sum += a[i];
// collects partial sums from other processes
int tmp;
for (i = 1; i < np; i++) {
MPI_Recv(&tmp, 1, MPI_INT, MPI_ANY_SOURCE, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, &status);
int sender = status.MPI_SOURCE;
sum += tmp;
}
// prints the final sum of array
printf ( "Sum of array is : %d\n" , sum);
}
// slave processes
else {
MPI_Recv(&n_elements_recieved, 1, MPI_INT, 0, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, &status);
// stores the received array segment
// in local array a2
MPI_Recv(&a2, n_elements_recieved, MPI_INT, 0, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD, &status);
// calculates its partial sum
int partial_sum = 0;
for ( int i = 0; i < n_elements_recieved; i++)
partial_sum += a2[i];
// sends the partial sum to the root process
MPI_Send(&partial_sum, 1, MPI_INT, 0, 0, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
}
// cleans up all MPI state before exit of process
MPI_Finalize();
return 0;
}
输出如下:
Sum of array is 55
