Phase 2 · Multithreaded Performance Optimization¶
Phase 2 evaluates the impact of Java multithreading on execution time for computing the sum of cubes of array elements.
This section is aligned with the instructor requirements released on February 28, 2026.
Required Thread Configurations¶
-
Single Thread Baseline
Measure reference runtime using
1thread. -
Low Parallelism
Run with
2and4threads to evaluate early scaling. -
High Parallelism
Run with
6and8threads to detect overhead and saturation. -
Performance Metrics
Record execution time, speedup, and percentage improvement.
Phase 2 Navigation¶
-
Experimental Plan
Controlled setup, timing method, and repeat policy.
-
Results Template
Ready-to-fill tables for timing, speedup, and machine specifications.
-
Analysis Report
Structured report outline mapped to submission requirements.
-
Work Log
Team responsibilities and progress checkpoints.
