Nearest Neighbor Searching in Binary Search Trees: Simulation of a Multiprocessor System.
Stewart, Mark; Willett, Peter
Journal of Documentation, v43 n2 p93-111 Jun 1987
Describes the simulation of a nearest neighbor searching algorithm for document retrieval using a pool of microprocessors. Three techniques are described which allow parallel searching of a binary search tree as well as a PASCAL-based system, PASSIM, which can simulate these techniques. Fifty-six references are provided.
