โœฆ Synopsis


In this paper we describe optimal processor-time parallel algorithms for set operations such as union, intersection, comparison on quadtrees. The algorithms presented in this paper run in (O(\log) (N) ) time using (N / \log N) processors on a shared memory model of computation that allows concurrent reads or writes. Consequently they allow us to achieve optimal speedups using any number of processors up to (N / \log N). The approach can also be used to derive optimal processor-time parallel algorithms for weaker models of parallel computation. 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

The computational model on which the algorithms are developed is the arrays with reconfigurable optical buses (abbreviated to AROB). It integrates the advantages of both optical transmission and electronic computation. In this paper, instead of using the radix-2 system, a radix-x system can be used

We present two new algorithms for searching in sorted X ุ‰ Y ุ‰ R ุ‰ S, one based on heaps and the other on sampling. Each of the algorithms runs in time O(n 2 log n) (n being the size of the sorted arrays X, Y, R, and S). Hence in each case, by constructing arrays of size n โ€ซุโ€ฌ O(2 s/4 ), we obtain a
