The power of parallel pointer manipulation: extended abstract

Abstract: "An HMM is a very simple parallel machine consisting of finite state devices that can manipulate pointers to each other. The more commonly studied PRAM is a much richer parallel machine with a shared global memory and arithmetic capabilities. We define a natural restriction of the PRA...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "An HMM is a very simple parallel machine consisting of finite state devices that can manipulate pointers to each other. The more commonly studied PRAM is a much richer parallel machine with a shared global memory and arithmetic capabilities. We define a natural restriction of the PRAM that is shown to be equivalent to the HMM to within a constant factor in both time and hardware simultaneously. Basically, the restricted PRAM is a Concurrent Read, Owner Write (CROW) PRAM, stripped of arithmetic capabilities, except for successor (+1) and doubling (x2) operations."
