摘要
High performance of parallel computing on a message-passing multicomputer System relies on the balance of the workloads located on the processing elements of the System and the minimum communication ovcrheads among them. Mapping is the technology to partition the problem domain wellbalanced into multiple distinct execution tasks based on some measures. In mapping, a good objective function is the criterion to guarantce the distinct execution tasks equitable. In this paper, we evaluate five categories of those existed objective functions with three different problem subjects using experiments and find an objective function is much suitable for all kinds of problems.
