Task assignment is one of the most fundamental combinatorial optimization problems. Solving the Task Assignment Problem is very important for many real time and computational scenarios where a lot of small tasks need to be solved by multiple processors simultaneously. In this paper a Heuristic and Parallel Algorithm for Task Assignment Problem is proposed. Results obtained for certain cases are presented and compared with the optimal solutions obtained by already available algorithms. It is observed that the proposed algorithm works much faster and efficient than the existing algorithms .The paper also demonstrates how the proposed algorithm could be extended to multiple distributed processors.
