Since both algorithms have O(n) runtime, the Leibniz implementation is also superior in terms of speed. With regards to the hotspots, both programs contain one area that holds over 99% of their total execution time; these areas will be the focus for parallelization. The programs were revised to remove all data dependencies, thus there should be no conflicts between threads when the parallel codes are applied.  ---- === Maze === '''Testing Environment:'''* Operating system: Linux* Compiler: g++ 5.2.0* Processor: Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 8220* System memory: 3098088 kB  '''How to setup:''' 1.

Download source files from https://github.com/corzani/maze 2. Create a new Visual Studio project 3. Copy all header and cpp files from the downloaded maze directory to the '''project''' directory (not the solution directory) 4. In VS, right click on the project in the Solution explorer and Add -> Existing Item; pick the copied files from the previous step 5. In VS, go to menu Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Package Manager Console; in the new console (at the bottom of the screen in default configuration), execute: PM> '''Install-Package libpng''' 6. In VS, Open MazePng.cpp, remove the following line: #include <unistd.h> 7. In VS, change the Configuration from '''Debug to Release''' and Platform from '''x86 to x64''' 8. In VS, go to menu Build -> Build Solution '''Analysis:''' The program function named toPng() takes up an average of 42% (min: 35%; max: 50%) of the execution time. The reason for toPng() to take so much runtime is because of the for loop that building the walls of the maze.  for (int i = 0; i < height; ++i) { row_pointers[i] = new png_byte[width * 3]; for (int j = 0; j < width * 3; j += 3) { row_pointers[i][j] = WALL; row_pointers[i][j + 1] = WALL; row_pointers[i][j + 2] = WALL; } } The function also has a runtime of O(n^2). [[File:

The program function primeFinder () is the only function in the program so it takes up to nearly 100% of the execution time. Moreover, primeFinder() has a runtime of O(n^2). primeFinder() function: void primeFinder(int num, int bn) { for (int i=2; i<num; i++) for (int j=2; j*j<=i; j++) { if (i % j == 0) break; else if (j+1 > sqrt(i)) { if(bn == 1) cout << i << endl; } } }  ---- === Recommendation === Maze. Although Pi may have more potential, its calculated results are too limited.

However, the maze image does not show correctly: the paths were showing as randomly coloured pixels; the cause is due to the threads setting only a part (1/3, 2/3) of a pixel's values to hexadecimal F.
