Question

How big an MPI cluster do you need on AWS to gain a speedup greater than 1.0 for a dish of 10,000 lines, where each line is 80 characters long?

Test your program(s) on AWS for various size clusters, and submit a zip file containing:

• the C and MPI programs you will have written,
• any shell file you will have written to help answer the question,
• and a pdf showing the details of your analysis, including the timing of your code AWS.
