Abstract
The authors describe the model for a parallel divide-and-conquer algorithm incorporating both the symmetric and nonsymmetric overheads inherent in any parallel computing environment. An algorithm for computing optimal partitions is derived. This algorithm separates problem sizes into classes of problems that may use the same optimal partition size
