An Efficient Parallel Algorithm for the Set Partition Problem

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 351))

Abstract

In this paper we propose a new approach in organizing a parallel computing to find the sequence of all solutions to a problem. We split the sequence of desirable solutions into subsequences and then execute concurrently processes to find these subsequences. We propose a new simple algorithm for the set partition problem and apply the above technique to this problem.
