Designing fast and efficient parallel algorithms

Thesis/Dissertation ·
OSTI ID:7183894

With the advance of VLSI technology parallel computers with thousands or even millions of processors will be available. Thus, studying the inherent parallelism of computational problems and developing parallel algorithms are currently important research topics. This dissertation develops parallel algorithms for some fundamental computational problems. Algorithms are presented for finding a maximal matching for a linked list of n nodes in time O. Also presented is a parallel algorithm for computing connected components for an undirected graph of e edges and n nodes in time O/sub e/.
