Abstract
Task assignment is one of the most challenging problems in distributed computing environment. An optimal task assignment guarantees minimum turnaround time for a given architecture. Several approaches of optimal task assignment have been proposed by various researchers ranging from graph partitioning based tools to heuristic graph matching. Using heuristic graph matching, it is often impossible to get optimal task assignment for practical test cases within an acceptable time limit. In this paper, we have parallelized the basic heuristic graph-matching algorithm of task assignment which is suitable only for cases where processors and inter processor links are homogeneous. This proposal is a derivative of the basic task assignment methodology using heuristic graph matching. The results show that near optimal assignments are obtained much faster than the sequential program in all the cases with reasonable speed-up.
