Then the lower bound Ω(m+h log h) of the running time for the general sequential B&B algorithm and the lower bound Ω(m/p+h log p) for the general parallel best-first B&B algorithm in PRAM-CREW are proposed, where p is the number of processors available. Moreover, the lower bound Ω(M/p+H+(H/p) log (H/p)) is presented for the parallel algorithms on distributed memory system, where M and H represent total number of the active nodes and that of the expanded nodes processed by p processors, respectively. In addition, a nearly fastest general parallel best-first B&B algorithm is put forward. The parallel algorithm is the fastest one as p = max{hε, r}, where ε = 1/ rootlogh, and r is the largest branch number of the nodes in the state-space tree.展开更多
