摘要:
We focus on differences inherent in the design and implementation of non-numeric parallel algorithms on MIMD and SIMD architectures. We take as our prototypical examples time-space optimal merging and sorting routines. Our representative MIMD and SIMD machines are the Sequent Symmetry S81 and the Connection Machine CM-2, respectively. In addition to the contrast provided by their differing execution philosophies, this choice of machines allows us to compare results from both shared-memory and distributed-memory models.
