We present a parallel FFT algorithm for SIMD systems following the "Transpose Algorithm" approach. The method is based on the assignment of the data field onto a one-dimensional ring of systolic cells. The systolic array can be universally mapped onto any parallel system. In particular for systems with next-neighbor connectivity our method has the potential to improve the efficiency of matrix transposition by use of hyper-systolic communication. We have realized a scalable parallel FFT on the APE100/Quadrics massively parallel computer, where our implementation is part of a two-dimensional hydrodynamics code for turbulence studies.

The paper, using a directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms, investigates precedence constrained multiprocessor schedules for the nx×ny×nz directed rectilinear mesh. Its completion requires at least nx+ny+nz−2 multiprocessor steps. Time-minimal multiprocessor schedules that use as few processors as possible are called processor-time-minimal. Lower bounds are shown for the nx×ny×nz directed mesh, and these bounds are shown to be exact by constructing a processor-time-minimal multiprocessor schedule that can be realized on a systolic array whose topology is either a two dimensional mesh or skewed cylinder.
