Projects

Project Name	Project Description	Status
C Compiler	Take the compilation process and transfer it to the GPU	failed
Galactic Collision Simulation	A 2D simulation of two galaxies colliding, with fully simulated gravity effects.	cannot benefit from parallel computing,already fast enough
Isomorphism of graphs	Check if two graphs are isomorphic in nature. This is a very straight forward program.	failed
Image Processing	Mathematical operations applied to images for colour negation, rotation, blurring effects, etc.	scrapped

Assignment 1

Mohamed Baig: Steganography using Steghide

Steghide has certain dependencies that it uses to complete its function.

Dependencies:

Makefile changes made

• libmash
• libcrypt
• libjpeg
• zlib

• Ran the Configure file to see if I have all the Dependencies
• Installed the all the dependencies
• Ran Configure again to generate Makefile in the src folder
• Altered the Makefile to enable profiling
• Altered some source files to avoid errors

Conclusion: Logical Error

The prime number generated seems to have run into some logical error. It does not generate the prime numbers correctly. Instead spits out all numbers.

Cuda Version: Attempt Two

Gives a run time error "invalid argument". Logical error still persists.

Manual Delete Warning

Final version's errors, warnings and observations

• If a number over 515 is entered as the launch argument, the program will display random values at the end of the list of prime numbers
• When attempting to delete the host array manually in the program, a warning is displayed

Manual Delete Crash

• The program crashes at the end if the host array is manually deleted

Successful run of Prime generation
