Abstract

We consider a certain class of parallel program segments in which the order of messages sent affects the completion time. We give characterization of these parallel program segments and propose a solution to minimize the completion time. With a sample parallel program, we experimentally evaluate the effect of the solution on a PC cluster. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
