RustMP
======
This repository contains the source code for Alex Bowman, Paul Ouellette, Raffi
Sanna, and Jack Yu's research project for CSC200H: an implicit parallelism
library written in Rust. For more details, please see the project report.
## Authors
- Alex Bowman (abowman6@u.rochester.edu)
- Paul Ouellette (pouellet@u.rochester.edu)
- Raffi Sanna (rsanna@u.rochester.edu)
- Jack Yu (yyu57@u.rochester.edu)
## Building/Running
RustMP requires the following dependencies to run:
- `rand-v0.8.3`: Random number generation used for benchmarking examples
- `rayon-v1.5.0`: Rayon parallel iterator library used in RustMP/Rayon..
comparision tests
- `hwloc2-v2.2.0`: C HWLoc wrapper used for NUMA aware process pinning
- `lazy_static-v1.4.0`: Lazy static macro used for delayed singleton init
`src/` contains all code for the RustMP library, including `lib.rs`,
`sysinfo.rs`, and `threadpool.rs`. `src/bin` contains benchmarking programs
demonstrated in our paper. To run one of the benchmarks with cargo, execute the
following command:
```
$ cargo run --release --bin <testname>
```
Additional comparison programs are located in `ext/`, where sequential, OpenMP
and Rayon comparison benchmarks can be found.
## Known issues
Due to Rust compiler limitations, Rust is only able to support up to 32 layers
of nested macros by default. If an alternative test program that exceeds this
nested depth for macros is used, please consider increasing this limit in
`Cargo.toml`.
