Culler, D.E., Karp, R.M., Patterson, D., Sahay, A., Santos, E.E., Schauser, K.E., Subramonian, R., von Eicken, T., "A practical model of parallel computation", Communications of the ACM, 39, 11, November 1996, pp. 78-85. Google
81 ;;Quote: high latency, communication overhead, and limited bandwidth will remain problems for parallel processing
81+;;Quote: the LogP model of parallel computation uses latency, overhead, gap between successive sends/receives, and number of processors; fixed size messages and finite capacity network
82 ;;Quote: LogP encourages practical speedups such as coordinating work assignment with data placement, reduced communication, overlapping computation with communication, and balanced communication without flooding a processor
84 ;;Quote: LogP helps guide algorithm design and implementation; discrepancies between predicted and measured times may indicate problems and improvements
