Parallel implementation of the auction algorithm on the Intel hypercube
Nader Bagherzadeh, Kent Hawk · 2003
The authors present their experience in executing the auction algorithm on an iPSC/860 hypercube multiprocessor. They show the performance of the algorithm under synchronous and asynchronous computation models. In order to reduce the number of iterations for this algorithm and effectively increase the inherent parallelism in the auction algorithm, they propose and test a new technique called gamma -scaling.>
