Abstract: Multi-core systems are becoming mainstream. However, it is still a big challenge to develop concurrent software. Parallel Design Patterns can help in the migration process from legacy sequential to high-performing parallel code. Therefore we propose a layered model of parallel design patterns. When going through the layered model in a topdown approach, the developer is guided through the transition from sequential to parallel code. The value of the layered model is shown using a cycle/chain-detection algorithm. Two different design pattern approaches are used in order to compare performance impact. First, an application is implemented with a minimum on algorithm modifications using the Map-Reduce design pattern. Next, the same algorithm is rewritten using the graph theory.
