Compiling OR-parallelism into AND-parallelism

New Generation Computing, 1986
This paper suggests a general method for compiling OR-parallelism into AND-parallelism. An interpreter for an AND/OR-parallel language written in the AND-parallel subset of the language induces a source-to-source transformation from the full language into the AND-parallel subset.

Parallel placement of parallel processes

Proceedings of the third conference on Hypercube concurrent computers and applications Architecture, software, computer systems, and general issues -, 1988
The problem of placing the individual processes of a logically partitioned problem on the nodes of a multiprocessor in such a manner as to minimize the communication and memory utilization costs is known as the process placement problem. This problem is, in general, NP-complete.

Tuning parallel applications in parallel

Parallel Computing, 2009
In this paper, we present and evaluate a parallel algorithm for parameter tuning of parallel applications. We discuss the impact of performance variability on the accuracy and efficiency of the optimization algorithm and propose a strategy to minimize the impact of this variability.

The Syntax of Parallelism

Fundamenta Informaticae, 1993
One of the problems associated with the introduction of parallel processors is the so called “dusty deck” problem. A solution entails the development of optimizing compilers that transform programs previously written for a conventional serial processor into functionally equivalent programs that exploit the parallel processing capabilities of the new ...

The Degree of Parallelism

J. Autom. Lang. Comb., 2007
In this paper, the degree of parallelism is introduced and investigated. The degree of parallelism is a natural descriptional complexity measure of Lindenmayer and Bharat systems. This concept quantifies the amount of non-redundant parallelism needed in the derivations of those systems.

On Parallel Searching

SIAM Journal on Computing, 1985
We investigate the complexity of searching a sorted table of n elements on a synchronous, shared memory parallel computer with p processors. We show that \(\Omega\) (lg n-lg p) steps are required if concurrent accesses to the same memory cell are not allowed, whereas O(lg n/lg p) steps are sufficient if simultaneous reads are allowed.

Parallel I/o as a pArallel Application

The International Journal of Supercomputer Applications and High Performance Computing, 1995
Metacomputing environments provide a software plat form for implementing parallel applications utilizing networked computing resources. Such programming environments offer a cost-effective alternative to paral lel machines for many classes of problems. Unfortu nately, most metacomputing environments either pro vide no I/O facilities, or serialize all I/

A parallelism analyzer for conservative parallel simulation

IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 1995
Most small-scale simulation applications are implemented by sequential simulation techniques. As the problem size increases, however, sequential techniques may be unable to manage the time complexity of the simulation applications adequately. It is natural to consider re-implementing the corresponding large-scale simulations using parallel techniques ...

Adaptive parallelism in compiler-parallelized code

Concurrency: Practice and Experience, 1998
As moderate-scale multiprocessors become widely used, we foresee an increased demand for effective compiler parallelization and efficient management of parallelism. While parallelizing compilers are achieving success at identifying parallelism, they are less adept at predetermining the degree of parallelism in different program phases. Thus, a compiler-

Parallel Counters

IEEE Transactions on Computers, 1973
Multiple-input circuits that count the number of their inputs that are in a given state (normally logic ONE) are called parallel counters. In this paper three separate types of counters are described, analyzed, and compared. The first counter consists of a network of full adders.
