Given an undirected graph, the Maximum Clique Problem (MCP) is to find a largest complete subgraph of the graph. MCP is NP-hard and has found many practical applications. In this paper, we propose a parallel Branch-and-Bound (BnB) algorithm to tackle this NP-hard problem, which carries out multiple bounded searches in parallel. Each search has its upper bound and shares a lower bound with the rest of the searches. The potential benefit of the proposed approach is that an active search terminates as soon as the best lower bound found so far reaches or exceeds its upper bound. We describe the implementation of our highly scalable and efficient parallel MCP algorithm, called PBS, which is based on a state-of-the-art sequential MCP algorithm. The proposed algorithm PBS is evaluated on hard DIMACS and BHOSLIB instances. The results show that PBS achieves a near-linear speedup on most DIMACS instances and a super-linear speedup on most BHOSLIB instances. Finally, we give a detailed analysis that explains the good speedups achieved for the tested instances.
