Advanced Programmers? you out there, help me....?

Question

hello. does anyone understand the work-time sceduling principle in parrallel O-Notation?

if so could you let me know how it works?

Answer 1

Hmmm... Something, somewhere, is confused.

I'd consider myself an advanced programmer. I am familliar with parallel programming. "Parallel O-Notation" is a new term for me. I googled it, and came up with zero documents. I know what Big O-Notation is, but Parallel O-Notation isn't jiving.

Here's a document that talks about parallel computing, and dicusses speedup due to parallelism...

The only paper I could find on the work-time scheduling principle is an article you can buy here:

You might be able to find a copy of that article for free at your local collegiate library.
