A detailed study is presented on the combinatorial optimization problem of allocating parallel tasks to a parallel computer. Depending on two application/machine-specific parameters, both a sequential and a parallel optimal allocation phase are shown to exist. A sudden "phase" transition is observed

Let T be a b-ary tree of height n, which has independent, non-negative, n identically distributed random variables associated with each of its edges, a model previously considered by Karp, Pearl, McDiarmid, and Provan. The value of a node is the sum of all the edge values on its path to the root. Co
