چکیده

A parallel algorithm for solving a classical geometric problem, the upper envelope of segments in the plane, is proposed. In this paper, an accurate analysis of its theoretical time complexity is presented. Moreover, considerations related to its implementation are discussed. In such implementation, distribution management relies upon PVM a software system supporting heterogeneity at the application, machine and network level.

Optimization of Agricultural BMPs Using a Parallel Computing Based Multi-Objective Optimization Algorithm

Beneficial Management Practices (BMPs) are important measures for reducing agricultural non-point source (NPS) pollution. However, selection of BMPs for placement in a watershed requires optimizing available resources to maximize possible water quality benefits. Due to its iterative nature, the optimization typically takes a long time to achieve the BMP trade-off results which is not desirable ...

Parallelizing Assignment Problem with DNA Strands

Background:Many problems of combinatorial optimization, which are solvable only in exponential time, are known to be Non-Deterministic Polynomial hard (NP-hard). With the advent of parallel machines, new opportunities have been emerged to develop the effective solutions for NP-hard problems. However, solving these problems in polynomial time needs massive parallel machines and ...
