• Download the http://siber.cankaya.edu.tr/ParallelComputing/cfiles/code21.c binary.
• Download the Excel http://siber.cankaya.edu.tr/ParallelComputing/Fall2009/parallelsumtable.xls file to fill the table by increasing the value of $n$ and the value of $nproc$.
• Login to the tiny cluster.
• Make all the test runs by the following command;

   mpirun -nolocal -np XXprocXX code21 XXNXX
  

• DO NOT FORGET TO ERASE your output files (#outputfile.dat) after your tests.
