Parallelization of array operations by using socket programming in .NET
This paper describes the procedure and the results of measuring the speed of processing arrays on 1, 2, or 3 hosts, connected in LAN. The measurement scenario was based on having the fixed processing time for each array member in all cases. Also, processing each array member is individual from processing others. For gaining control data, the array was processed on only one host. Afterwards, the array was split in two and three equal pieces for processing on two and three hosts, respectively. The communication between the hosts was established by using socket programming techniques in .NET. The results were impressive because the speed-up in some cases was almost linear.
