Abstract

A derivation of parallel implementation of an efficient microcode compaction algorithm has been described. The serial algorithm is decomposed into four schedules of computations. Parallelism within a schedule and between the schedules is examined. The time complexity of the parallel implementation is of O(n2) when O(n3 processors are available. This initial attempt may motivate further investigations in designing efficient parallel algorithms for microcode compaction.
