8. Some Exemplar Applications

Now that we have covered the basics, let’s take a look at some larger examples that illustrate message passing in C/C++ using the MPI library. The two examples that we have prepared for you are called “Drug Design” and “Forest Fire”.

Both exemplars are located under the CSinParallel/Exemplars/MPI_examples/ folder. Click on the links below to read about each in detail.
