Distributed computation in linear networks: closed-form solutions
Vinidhra Mani, Debasish Ghose · IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems · 1994
A linear network of communicating processors is analyzed. The processors in the network may or may not be equipped with front-end processors. The processing load originates either at the boundary or at the interior of the network. Closed-form solutions and computational techniques are presented for the above situations, to obtain time optimal distribution of processing loads on the processors. Some important results are proved analytically using the closed-form expressions.>
