jacobi-c

An implementation of the Jacobi iterative method in C

This piece of code is a project done for college, on the Fundamentals of Operating Systems (Processes and Threads were the main points here)

What is in the Project?

There are two versions of the "Jacobi iterative algorithm for determining the solutions of a strictly diagonally dominant system", being one done with processes and shared memory, and the other with threads. Both are synchronized by a Two-Phase Barrier or Reusable Barrier implementation, as stated in "The Little Book of Semaphores" - Chapter 3.7.5 - Reusable Barrier Solution

I decided to let some faulty versions of code that I've wrote before the final working version inside the codefaults folder.
