Fault-tolerant meshes with minimal numbers of spares
This paper presents several techniques for adding fault-tolerance to distributed memory parallel computers. More formally, given a target graph with n nodes, we create a fault-tol...

Parallel and distributed algorithms for finite constraint satisfaction problems
This paper develops two new algorithms for solving a finite constraint satisfaction problem (FCSP) in parallel. In particular, we give a parallel algorithm for the EREW PRAM model...

Asynchronous parallel search by the parallel genetic algorithm
The parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) is a prototype of a new kind of a distributed algorithm. It is based on a parallel search by individuals all of which have the complete proble...

Optimal randomized algorithms for multipacket and cut through routing on the mesh
In this paper, we present a randomized algorithm for the multipacket (i.e., k − k) routing problem on an n × n mesh. The algorithm completes with high probability in at the mos...
