A distributed scheme for dynamic partitioning is investigated. Distributed procedures to split a subsystem and to combine subsystems are presented. The correctness of each of these two procedures is shown, and the complexity is analyzed. The procedures are applicable to parallel computers that use interconnection networks, such as hypercube, omega, multistage cube, and extra-stage cube networks. >
