mpi-mandel

The mpi-mandel program is a visualizer for the Mandelbrot set. Following is an example of how to run this program using 4 processors:

[root@cluster ~]# NP=4 mpi-mandel --demo /usr/share/doc/mpi-mandel-1.0.20a/mandel.fav
While running mpi-mandel, you can view the BeoStatus display to verify that all nodes are taking part in the application. The following figure shows mpi-mandel running with BeoStatus open in the GUI mode.

Note that mpi-mandel does not automatically terminate. You can terminate the program manually as follows:

  1. Click the Stop button in the display window button bar.

  2. Select File -> Exit from the display window menu to exit the program and close the display window.
