Abstract

This chapter explores the Knight's Tour problem, a classic chess puzzle, and its solutions using various algorithms and parallelization techniques. The text delves into the Naive algorithm, comparing its performance with other methods like backtracking and heuristic algorithms. It highlights the challenges of solving the Knight's Tour problem on different chessboard dimensions and the efficiency gains achieved through parallelization using OpenMP and MPI. The chapter also discusses profiling techniques to analyze and optimize the performance of the algorithms. Through practical examples and detailed analysis, it demonstrates how parallel computing can significantly speed up the solution process, making it a valuable resource for professionals in the field of algorithm optimization and parallel computing.
