Abstract

Writing irregular parallel algorithms with OpenMP has been rarely practised in the past. Yet it is possible, and in this paper we will use a simple breadth-first search application as an example to show a possible stepping stone and deficiency of the OpenMP specification: It is very difficult to cancel the threads in a parallel region. A way to work around the issue within the existing OpenMP specification is sketched, while our main contribution is a proposal for an extension of OpenMP to solve the issue in an easier way. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2006.
