Pandemic Modeling Exemplar using OpenMP

This example contains a fully functional simulation of the type of modeling done by epidemiologists to answer the question: what happens when an infectious disease hits a population? Code for an original serial version is provided and described in detail. Next, descriptions of a parallel version using OpenMP is provided, where the code is modified from the original serial version.

Acknowledgment: Many thanks to Aaron Weeden of the Shodor Foundation for the original version of this material and code.
