Abstract: Implementation of an Efficient Parallel BDD Package by Anthony L. Stornetta Large BDD applications are generally limited by a processor's resources, especially physical memory. In large BDD applications, virtual memory is not an attractive solution for conventional depth-first BDD algorithms. Irregular memory access patterns in the algorithm cause thrashing, which severely impairs performance. One solution to overcoming this resource limitation is to utilize the memory of multiple networked... (Update)

...parallel BDD packages for various different architectures. For space reasons, we discuss here only the work of Stornetta and Brewer [8], which is the prior work most similar to ours in that we both target distributed memory machines. We refer the interested reader to their...

...shared memory (DSM) is another way to implement BDDs on distributed memory architectures. This has been done by Parasuram et al. [8]. The results obtained running on a CM 5 look good, but it 12 is not clear how good the results actually are, as the paper compare wall...
