Communication Complexity and Parallel Computing: The Application of Communication Complexity in Parallel Computing (Texts in Theoretical Computer Science - An Eatcs Series) - Hardcover
Synopsis
This book is devoted to the investigation of a special topic in theoretical computer science - communication complexity as an abstract measure of the complexity of computing problems. Its main aim is to show how the theoretical study of communication complexity can be useful in the process of designing effective parallel algorithms. The author shows how to get important information about the parallel complexity (parallel time, the number of processors, the descriptional complexity of the topology of the parallel architecture) of specific computing problems from knowledge of their communication complexity. The book is written as a textbook for undergraduate and graduate students and provides a careful explanation of the subject as well as motivation for further research.

Review
Altogether, students and researchers interested in the field of complexity theory get an informative compendium at their disposal. Formulations are precise, and the proofs are exact and complete...the book should be contained in the library of every complexity theorist. -- Christoph Meinel, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 98f
