A new method, namely the Parallel Two-Level Hybrid (PTH) method, is developed to solve tridiagonal systems on parallel computers. PTH is designed based on Parallel Diagonal Domina...
Abstract: Intra-operator(or partitioned) parallelism is a well-established mechanism for achieving high performance in parallel database systems. However, the problem of how to exp...
Abstract Column generation techniques have become a widely used technique to successfully solve large (integer) linear programs. One of the keys to obtaining a practically efficien...
