In this paper we investigate the parallelization of two modular algorithms.
In fact, we consider the modular computation of Gr\"obner bases (resp. standard
bases) and the modular computation of the associated primes of a
zero-dimensional ideal and describe their parallel implementation in SINGULAR.
Our modular algorithms to solve problems over Q mainly consist of three parts,
solving the problem modulo p for several primes p, lifting the result to Q by
applying Chinese remainder resp. rational reconstruction, and a part of
verification. Arnold proved using the Hilbert function that the verification
part in the modular algorithm to compute Gr\"obner bases can be simplified for
homogeneous ideals (cf. \cite{A03}). The idea of the proof could easily be
adapted to the local case, i.e. for local orderings and not necessarily
homogeneous ideals, using the Hilbert-Samuel function (cf. \cite{Pf07}). In
this paper we prove the corresponding theorem for non-homogeneous ideals in
case of a global ordering.Comment: 16 page
