This assignment entails writing a program in C or C++ to implement parallel searching and parallel sorting routines. People are expected to devise out their own algorithms / find out the relevant algorithms for the same. The modus operandi for you has been deliberately kept quite open-ended, provided you make your work `impressive' to your TAs. The web should have enough material. Ditto for the library - any text on Parallel algorithms, `High Performance Computing', IEEE tutorials, Advanced Computer Architecture', etc. in the 681 section should help. I know of books by Selim Akl, Vipin Kumar and others, Bertsekas, etc. There are a few new texts as well. Take your pick. Or pick a stake in developing your own algorithm. Possible processor interconnection architectures could be from among a linear ring, mesh, hypercube, or a complete graph (each processor connected to every other processor). Implementation may be a simulation of a parallel environment through time loops, threads (The Linux  pthread library, for instance), PVM, an implementation on a Beowulf cluster, etc.
Please note that a proper report has to be submitted for this, too - this report should contain the theory, the proposed algorithm, and a thorough analysis of the algorithm, too.
