This paper presents one
approach for parallel algorithms representation. The proposed model is practice
oriented and its name is AMPA (Agenda Model for Parallel Algorithms) due to
basic blocks organization like a schedule. The model uses classical Master/Slave
paradigm. One parallel merge sorting algorithm based on quick sort is presented
with the discussed AMPA model and also three known representation approaches
(description with natural language, pseudo code and PRAM). A survey of professional
opinion about AMPA and other approaches is conducted. The results show that
most of the interviewed people choose
AMPA as the best way to understand the algorithm.
