- Hi all,
-
- I am looking for parallel/dist algorithms ( and general problem
- areas ) that are suitable for a cluster of workstations.
- That is, point-to-pont communication is just as costly as a
- broadcast to all since machines are hooked onto an ethernet..
- I need algos that exploit this ie algos that get all
- the work done thru broadcasts and/or computation done in a
- phased manner etc..;
-
- An excellent example is sahni's all-pairs-shortest-paths
- (originally floyd's seq algo);
- I would very much appreciate any help, like pointers to
- survey articles/books etc;.
