We propose efficient algorithms on two of the most popular parallel architectures, hypercube and mesh. For a hypercube with p < n processors, we present a parallel algorithm running in 0(n^\varepsilon \min \{ r,\log p\} ) time for p = n^{1 - \varepsilon } ,0 < \varepsilon < 1 which is cost optimal when r \geqslant p. Our algorithm on \sqrt p \times \sqrt p mesh runs in 0(\sqrt p + \frac{n}{p}\log ^3 p) time which is the same as multiselection on mesh when r \geqslant \log p, and thus has the same optimality as multiselection in this case
