Abstract
In this paper we propose a high-performance text searching implementation on a heterogeneous cluster of workstations using MPI message passing library. We test this parallel implementation and present experimental results for different text sizes and number of workstations. We also present a performance prediction model that agrees well with our experimental measurements
