: This paper discusses the parallelization of Stochastic Evolution (StocE) metaheuristic, for a distributed parallel environment. VLSI cell placement is used as an optimization pro...
The actor model has already proven itself as an interesting concurrency model that avoids issues such as deadlocks and race conditions by construction, and thus facilitates concur...
We present a randomized algorithm to nd a minimum spanning forest (MSF) in an undirected graph. With high probability, the algorithm runs in logarithmic time and linear work on an...
Abstract. This paper describes a parallel model for a distributed memory architecture of a non traditional evolutionary computation method, which integrates constraint propagation ...
We describe the experience of three undergraduate computer science programs offering courses on parallel computing. In particular, we offer three different solutions to the proble...
