DescriptionThis paper presents the "Implementing a minimal OpenMP runtime using Pthreads" assignment that is offered to students of Parallel Programming and Architectures (PAP), a third-year subject in the Bachelor Degree in Informatics Engineering at the Barcelona School of Informatics (FIB) of the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC) - BarcelonaTech. We believe this is a high-quality assignment, previously-tested (and evolved) in the past 3 academic years, that is readily adoptable by other educators with the objectives of 1) understanding how a high-level parallel programming model such as OpenMP is implemented and 2) learning Pthreads in a very interesting and applied way. This assignment contributes to open the black box behind the compilation and execution command lines for OpenMP programs.
