All projects should compile and will be tested on the GRACE cluster, and specifically on one of the linux.grace.umd.edu machines. To access GRACE, you will need a Glue account. Click here for information about gaining access to and using the GRACE cluster, as well as requesting a Glue account.
Once your account is activated, you should be able to access GRACE by using an SSH client. Click here to see a list of OIT-supported SSH software. Use your client to connect to linux.grace.umd.edu using your Directory ID and password.
If you have trouble connecting to GRACE or questions about class accounts, please notify the teaching assistant.
In order to submit your work using the GRACE cluster, log on linux.grace.umd.edu with your Directory ID and password, and run a command of the following format:
submit 2014 fall cmsc 420 0101 <assignment #> <your archive file>
where <assignment #> represents the number corresponding to the assignment number (see the Assignment NO. field in assignments webpage or the following instruction link), and <your archive file>(.tar.gz or .zip) is the archive containing the files of your homework, please name this file after your UID. For example: submit 2014 fall cmsc 420 0101 2 123456789.tar.gz
Here is a set of instructions for the submission quadtree project using the GRACE cluster.
