Abstract
The subject of this chapter is the design and analysis of parallel algorithms. Most of today’s algorithms are sequential, that is, they specify a sequence of steps in which each step consists of a single operation. These algorithms are well suited to today’s computers, which basically perform operations in a sequential fashion. Although the speed at which sequential computers operate has
