PRAM (Parallel Random Access Model) has been widely regarded a desirable parallel machine model for many years, but it is also believed to be "impossible in reality." As...
One of the long-standing open questions in the theory of parallel computation is the parallel complexity of the integer gcd and related problems, such as modular inversion. We pres...
This paper presents algorithms and lower bounds for several fundamental problems on the Exclusive Read, Concurrent Write Parallel Random Access Machine (ERCW PRAM) and some result...
For years, the computation rate of processors has been much faster than the access rate of memory banks, and this divergence in speeds has been constantly increasing in recent yea...

We present a new programming language designed to allow the convenient expression of algorithms for a parallel random access machine (PRAM). The language attempts to satisfy two p...
