Abstract

The paper reports new results on developing parallel algorithms for multiprocessor scheduling with use of cellular automata (CAs). The simpliest case when a multiprocessor system is limited to two processors, but without of any limitations on a size and parameters of parallel programs is considered. An approach called a selected neighborhood is used to design a structure of CAs for a given program graph. Coevolutionary genetic algorithm (GA) to discover rules of parallel CAs, suitable for solving the scheduling problem is proposed. Sequential and parallel scheduling algorithms discovered in the context of CAs - based scheduleing system are compared.
