✦ Synopsis


With the widening gap between processor speeds and disk access speeds, the IΓ‚O bottleneck has become critical. Parallel disk systems have been introduced to alleviate this bottleneck. In this paper we present deterministic and randomized selection algorithms for parallel disk systems. The algorithms to be presented, in addition to being asymptotically optimal, have small underlying constants in their time bounds and hence have the potential of being practical.

This paper presents an o-line diagnosis strategy for parallel message-passing systems. This strategy, called hostdiagnosis, allows a host system to perform centralized diagnosis of the system state, given results of distributed tests performed among the system processors. It is useful for a manufact

## Abstract We present two deterministic parallel Selection algorithms for distributed memory machines, under the coarse‐grained multicomputer model. Both are based on the use of two weighted 3‐medians, that allows discarding at least 1/3 of the elements in each iteration. The first algorithm sligh

Non-stationary parallel multisplitting iterative methods are introduced for the solution of almost linear systems. A non-stationary parallel algorithm based on the AOR-type methods and its extension to asynchronous models are considered. Convergence properties of the synchronous and asynchronous ver
