Abstract
In this paper we consider the problem of numerical integration of multidimensional integrals. A new hyper-rectangle selection strategy is proposed for the implementation of globally adaptive parallel quadrature algorithms. The well known master-slave parallel algorithm prototype is used for the realization of the algorithm. Numerical results on the SP2 computer and on a cluster of workstations are reported. A test problem where the integrand function has a strong corner singularity is investigated.
