โœฆ Synopsis


A portable parallel implementation of MLn, a multilevel modelling package, for shared memory parallel machines is described. Particular attention is paid to cross-classiรฟed and multiple membership models, which are more computationally demanding than those with simple hierarchical structure. Performance results are presented for a range of shared-memory parallel architectures, demonstrating a signiรฟcant increase in the size of models which can be handled interactively.

We present a parallel algorithm for performing multipoint linkage analysis of genetic marker data on large family pedigrees. The algorithm effectively distributes both the computation and memory requirements of the analysis. We discuss an implementation of the algorithm in the Genehunter linkage ana

A parallel version of a calibration algorithm for a two-factor Cheyette-beta model using the LevenbergยฑMarquardt algorithm is presented. A new development environment for parallel applications, based on the event-driven parallel application model is introduced. Advantages and drawbacks of such a mod
