Member Function Documentation

bool nextAssignment	(	int &	start,
		int &	end
	)

Called by each thread to get the next assignment. If nextAssignment returns true, the thread has a valid assignment, and then would be responsible for the work from the returned start through end-l. Assignments can range from 0 to totalAssignments-1. When nextAssignment returns false, all work has been assigned.

void refill	(	int	totalAssignments,
		int	nthreads,
		int	granularity = 5
	)

Fill the work queue with the specified total number of work assignments. num_threads specifies the approximate number of threads which will be working from this queue. The optional granularity specifies the degree to which the tasks are divided. A large granularity will create more assignments with smaller assignments. A granularity of zero will recieve a single assignment of approximately uniform size. name should be a static string which describes the primitive for debugging purposes.
