Hi folks,

I am doing a research on scheduling scheme for parallel loops on DSM
multiprocessor.  A new approach is suggested as well as some performance
analysis is done.  As DSM provides a shared memory programming model, I
compare my approach with some well known loop scheduling schemes for
shared memory multiprocessor, such as Guided Self-Scheduling.  However,
I get a comment saying that it is inappropriate to use GSS for
comparison as GSS is not suitable for DSM.

Therefore, I would like to get some pointers to any parallel loop
scheduling methods for DSM multiprocessor (other than those for shared
memory multiprocessors such as Factoring or Trapezoid Self-Scheduling).

Thanks for reading,


Starry.
