Abstract

We present adaptive parallel algorithms for b-matchings in trees. The algorithms are designed using the exclusive-read exclusive-write parallel random-access machine (EREW PRAM) model of parallel computation. For a tree of n vertices, we present an algorithm that determines a maximum cardinality b-matching in O(n/p + log n) time using p processors, where p = @/n/log n is also designed for the maximum weight b-matching problem in trees. When p =
