explain classification of PRAM model
explain classification of PRAM model The PRAM model is an extension of the familiar RAM model of sequential computation that is used in algorithm analysis. We will use the synchronous PRAM which is defined as follows. 1. There are p processors connected to a single shared memory. 2. Each processor has a unique index 1 <= i <= p called the processor id . 3. A single program is executed in single-instruction stream, multiple-data stream (SIMD) fashion. Each instruction in the instruction stream is carried out by all processors simultaneously and requires unit time, regardless of the number of processors.
