Summary on Grant Application Form
To develop a new analytic framework, based on the bulk synchronous parallel (BSP) computing model, which will guide the design and implementation of efficient, architecture independent parallel algorithms for scalable parallel computers. To design, analyse and implement efficient bulk synchronous parallel algorithms for matrix operations, graph computations, combinatorial optimisation and scientific computations. To develop new techniques for establishing the BSP complexity of computational problems.
