An Optimal Linked List Prefix Algorithm on a Local Memory Computer

The author presents a deterministic parallel algorithm for the linked list prefix problem. It computes linked list prefixs for an input list of n elements in time O(n/p+logn) on a local memory PRAM model using p processors and p shared memory cells. >
