Abstract

A methodology for transforming sequential recursive algorithms to distributive ones is suggested. The assumption is that the program segments between recursive calls have a distributive implementation. The methodology is applied to two k-selection algorithms and yields new distributed k-selection algorithms. Some complexity issues of the resulting algorithms are discussed.
