In this paper we present a parallel asynchronous implementation of the e-relaxation method for solving the linear minimum cost flow problem on distributed memory message-passing multiprocessor systems. The general structure of the method is well suited to efficient parallelization, since a single iteration can be performed on several nodes simultaneously. We describe the implementation details of the parallel version on both a Fujitsu AP1000 and a clsuster of Digital Alpha workstations connected via FDDI links. The results obtained demonstrate that our implementation is capable of substantial speedups.

Abstract

In this paper we present a parallel asynchronous implementation of the e-relaxation method for solving the linear minimum cost flow problem on distributed memory message-passing multiprocessor systems. The general structure of the method is well suited to efficient parallelization, since a single iteration can be performed on several nodes simultaneously. We describe the implementation details of the parallel version on both a Fujitsu AP1000 and a clsuster of Digital Alpha workstations connected via FDDI links. The results obtained demonstrate that our implementation is capable of substantial speedups.
