/*****************************************************************************
* FILE: mpithreads_threads.c
* DESCRIPTION:
*   This simple program illustrates the use of Pthreads in a program obtained
*   by modifying a serial code that performs a dot product. It is the second
*   of four codes used to show the progression from a serial program to a
*   hybrid MPI/Pthreads program.  The other relevant codes are:
*      - mpithreads_serial.c   - The serial version
*      - mpithreads_mpi.c - A distributed memory programming model with MPI
*      - mpithreads_both.c - A hybrid model that utilizes both MPI and
*          Pthreads to execute on systems that are comprised of clusters
*          of SMP's.
*   The main data is made available to all threads through a globally 
*   accessible structure. Each thread works on a different part of the 
*   data.  The main thread waits for all the threads to complete their 
*   computations, and then it prints the resulting sum.
