Opis

This work contains papers presented at the Workshop on Parallel Processing of Discrete Optimization Problems held at DIMACS in April 1994. The contents cover a wide spectrum of recent algorithms and applications in parallel processing of discrete optimization and related problems. Topics include parallel branch and bound algorithms, scalability, load balancing, parallelism and irregular data structures and scheduling task graphs on parallel machines. Applications include parallel algorithms for solving satisfiability problems, location problems, linear programming, quadratic and linear assignment problems. This book would be suitable as a textbook in advanced courses on parallel algorithms and combinatorial optimization.
