摘要:

The two most popular models of sequential and parallel computation lead, once defined precisely, to a computational paradox. Specifically, we show that for a wide family of problems the cost of a PRAM solution is smaller than that of its RAM counterpart. This contradicts the currently established belief, and does not appear to be amenable to explanation using existing approaches. We use the termparallel synergyto refer to this phenomenon
