摘要: The simplex method has been successfully used in solving linear programming problems for many years. Parallel approaches have also extensively studied due to the intensive computations required, especially solution of large (LPs). In this paper we present a highly scalable implementation framework standard full tableau on hybrid parallel environment, which consists multiple multicore processing nodes interconnected via high-speed communication network. Specifically, designed and implemented suitable column-based distribution scheme, following three different parallelization models: (a) pure MPI (one process each core), (b) OpenMP-based (OpenMP constructs over cores node), (c) MPI-based (MPI 3.0 shared memory functions node). We then compare our (i) among other variable number nodes/cores problem size, (ii) recent valuable corresponding efforts literature. all cases scheme performs quite/much better than two schemes. Moreover, schemes lead particularly high speed-up efficiency values, whereas values are considerably ones achieved similar research implementations.
