Abstract

List ranking is one of the fundamental techniques in parallel algorithm design. Hayashi, Nakano, and Olariu proposed a deterministic list ranking algorithm that runs in O(log* n) time and a randomized one that runs in O(1) expected time, both on a reconfigurable mesh of size n×n. In this paper we show that the same deterministic and randomized time complexities can be achieved using only O(n1+Ɛ) processors, where Ɛ is an arbitrary positive constant
