[CSC 335] Project 2 Extra Credit (Again...)

[Andrew J. Pounds]

  In my last e-mail I stated...

I want to clarify that.  In actuality "you _could_ have MUCH longer 
runtimes".  It all depends on how you write your code and how you treat 
your termination conditions.  I want to avoid those of you working on 
the extra credit letting your code run for days.  By forcing the code to 
terminate after a specified amount of simulated time, you should be able 
to get the plots you need to verify that your barrier is working properly.
