The last two quarters I have been working on a multi-threaded MRI imaging medical analysis program as a project before I graduate :( . It is going to be run on super computers here at school, but I want to see if our "super" computers will suffice.

The actual program is really tiny and zipped up in the attachment. You might need to have a few files installed from Windows if you get some error messages at startup (unless you have vis studio installed, its pretty much guaranteed)

On 32-bit windows machines you might need to install:
32-bit Microsoft runtime stuff (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=65127)

On 64-bit windows machines you might need to install:
64 bit Microsoft runtime stuff (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=90548130-4468-4bbc-9673-d6acabd5d13b&displaylang=en)


On my modest P-M 1.4 GHz Centrino computer the program takes 5-6 minutes to analyze the input dataset. I'm hoping that others can run the program for me so I can chart process time. The program is currently windows only (this will change eventually).

If you are willing to run it, please report the number of ms it takes (displayed at the end). I'd appreciate some CPU-Z shots of memory, cache, CPU speed, etc. Also the first line displayed shows the number of threads running for the main process. Please record this number, thanks.

This has 0 commercial plans and is purely an educational / research program. Thanks!

I am running vista and cudn't get this to run. I get some "vcomp.dll not found" error even after installing that 32bit lib in your post. Placing the vcomp.dll in the app path raises some other error. I also tried setting every compatiblity setting for that app. So I guess this app just doesn't run on vista.

I cannot for the life of me figure out Vista. The program works on my vista machine when I compile it on it. I'll post the windows version from the gnu compiler eventually... that works on all of the computers I have access to so far.

Thanks anyways.

Well, it sucks at multithreading... thead 1 is done in a short time. A while after thread 2 is done, and 2-3-4 minutes later, thread 3&4 is done! 344547ms for my quad x3210 @ 3ghz
