A Randomized Sublinear Time Parallel GCD Algorithm for the EREW PRAM

Data Structures and Algorithms 2010-01-15 v2

Abstract

We present a randomized parallel algorithm that computes the greatest common divisor of two integers of n bits in length with probability 1-o(1) that takes O(n loglog n / log n) expected time using n^{6+\epsilon} processors on the EREW PRAM parallel model of computation. We believe this to be the first randomized sublinear time algorithm on the EREW PRAM for this problem.
