Programming Project #3: A parallel distributed implementation of Conway’s Game of Life (GoL) // orat least my version of it!

Assignment type: You can work in team sizes of at most two including yourself. If you want to workindividually, that’s fine too. But either way you should fill out the cover sheet. If you are working in teams,please ensure you are compliant with the submission requirements (see last section).

You are expected to the Pleiades cluster for this project.

Preliminaries: This project assumes that you have already understood how to write and test a simplehelloworld.c (https://wsu.instructure.com/courses/1650006/files/108598122?wrap=1)(https://wsu.instructure.com/courses/1650006/files/108598122/download?download_frd=1) MPI program onthe cluster. Please read the documentation(https://wsu.instructure.com/courses/1650006/pages/clusterinstructions) on how to use the Pleiadescluster, and how to compile and run an MPI job on the cluster before you work on this assignment.

For this project you may need to use one or more of the following MPI communication primitives:
