Abstract :
This paper presents a cost error measurement scheme and relaxed synchronization method, for simulated annealing on a distributed memory multicomputer, which predicts the amount of cost error that an algorithm will tolerate. An adaptive error control method is developed and implemented on an Intel iPSC/2
