Two versions of source code:

1. parallel_multicore (for shared memory computers): 
An OpenMP implementation of DBSCAN clustering algorithm using the disjoint set data structure.

2. parallel_mpi (for distributed memory computers):
An MPI implementation DBSCAN clustering algorithm using the disjoint set data structure.

More details on how to use the code are available in the corresponding folder.
