Completion Probabilities and Parallel Restart Strategies under an Imposed Deadline.

Let A be any fixed cut-off restart algorithm running in parallel on multiple processors. If the algorithm is only allowed to run for up to time D, then it is no longer guaranteed that a result can be found. In this case, the probability of finding a solution within the time D becomes a measure for t...
