Opis

This book presents the proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Parallel Algorithms for Irregularly Structured Problems, IRREGULAR '95, held in Lyon, France in September 1995. This workshop series addresses issues related to deriving efficient parallel solutions to irregularly structured problems and aims at fostering cooperation between practitioners and theoreticians in the field.
Besides three invited papers, 20 full papers and eight short contributions are presented, all selected during a highly competitive refereeing process; the volume is organized in sections on programming methods and compiling techniques, mapping and scheduling, applications, and optimization.
