Heuristics for work distribution of a homogeneous parallel dynamic programming scheme on heterogeneous systems ?
In this paper the possibility of including automatic optimization techniques in the design of parallel dynamic programming algorithms in heterogeneous systems is analyzed. The main idea is to automatically approach the optimum values of a number of algorithmic parameters (number of processes, number of processors, processes per processor), and thus obtain low execution times. Hence, users could be provided with routines which execute efficiently, and independently of the experience of the user in heterogeneous computing and dynamic programming, and which can adapt automatically to a new network of processors or a new network configuration.
