Vector models for data-parallel computing

TL;DR: A model of parallelism that extends and formalizes the Data-Parallel model on which the Connection Machine and other supercomputers are based is described, and it is argued that data-parallel models are not only practical and can be applied to a surprisingly wide variety of problems, they are also well suited for very-high-level languages and lead to a concise and clear description of algorithms and their complexity.

Scans as primitive parallel operations

TL;DR: A study of the effects of adding two scan primitives as unit-time primitives to PRAM (parallel random access machine) models is presented and it is shown that the primitives improve the asymptotic running time of many algorithms by an O(log n) factor, greatly simplifying the description of many technologies.

A fast parallel algorithm for routing in permutation networks

TL;DR: An algorithm is given for routing in permutation networks-that is, for computing the switch settings that implement a given permutation.

The Complexity of Parallel Computations

TL;DR: This thesis describes an algorithm for the off-line MIN that organizes its computation in the form of a complete binary tree that relies on redundancy in its representation of the input graph, and introduces three techniques that permit the design of parallel algorithms that are efficient in terms of both their time and processor requirements.

Finding Biconnected Components and Computing Tree Functions in Logarithmic Parallel Time (Extended Summary)

TL;DR: A general algorithmic technique which simplifies and improve computation of various functions on tress is introduced, which typically requires 0(log n) time using 0(n) space on an exclusive-read exclusive-write parallel RAM.
