SOME NEW DESIGNS OF 2-D ARRAY FOR MATRIX MULTIPLICATION AND TRANSITIVE CLOSURE

Abstract

In this paper, we present some new regular iterative algorithms for matrix multiplication and transitive closure. With these algorithms, by spacetime mapping the 2-D arrays with 2N-1 and [(3N-1)/2] execution times for matrix multiplication can be obtained, Meanwhile, we can derive a 2-D array with 4N-2 execution time for transitive closure based on the sequential Warshall-Floyd algorithm. All these new 2-D arrays for matrix multiplication and transitive closure have the advantages of faster and more regular than other previous designs.
