[DISTRIBUIDOS Y PARALELOS] Fifth week

This week I'm talking anout distribuited file systems:

• What about them.
• Gluster File System
• Andrew File System

[DISTRIBUIDOS Y PARALELOS] Third week

This week I was reading more about threads, this time about synchronization:

I was triyng to use mutex (locks) in some codes using threading.Lock from python.

Also there is threading.Semaphore() and threading.Condition()

I updated the page I did last week with this information.

This week I'll nominate to Cecilia for her mergesort python program using both secuential and parallel ways.
I'll also nominate Gabriela because I found her post very useful

[DISTRIBUIDOS Y PARALELOS] Second week

This week I tried to modify the code of mergesort in python to make it work with threads, but I found it a little hard.

At the first try, the results were:

One instruction was executed as many times as I had defined threads.

In this link I explain how to work with threads an two diferent ways of execution of them.

[DISTRIBUIDOS Y PARALELOS] Fisrt week

In this first week I tried to execute mergesort algorithm in python.

So I looked for information about the algorithm in some pages and I found this:

First I tried some implementations where I divided a list in pairs and comparing the elements in each list generated from the original list.

I failed. Becouse I only got a sublist order, but not the full list.

So I looked again for more information and then I made this code:

This code works fine, and I tried to implement threads, but it's a little hard.
