Abstract

Each vertex of an undirected graph possesses a piece of information that must be sent to every other vertex. They communicate by sending bounded size packets of messages from one vertex to another. The authors describe parallel algorithms, which accomplish the desired tasks for six prominent architectures. The algorithms are optimal, or nearly so, in every case.
