End of Spring!

It all ended on 18th may, my pen and my brain smoked, as I left the classroom and went towards the exit. The last of the exams , called Algorithmic analysis (advanced) finished at exactly 2.30 pm, on that day.

Finally, it was all over!

I did some pretty cool things this semester, the coolest of all was a particle simulator...It was a simple 3 dimensional particle simulator, which simulated the gravitational force. The better thing being it worked using open-mp a new technology that allows multi-threading stuff to be done in some 2-3 stmts.

There are some pretty good tutorials out there, which anyone can use, but their isnt much help on the 3 dimensional collision part. So I think I should write a bit about it, and I will in my next post.


So basically, the program follows the Single process multiple data model , and does a spatial decomposition, of the cube in which the actual collision takes place.

A 3d puzzle game could easily be done here...or so I think.

Here are a few screen shots, and a video (the video is quick ,cause There is apparently some shitty problem when recording videos of off linux)
