基于簇的层次敏感的可重构系统任务划分算法

对于可重构计算中面积约束条件下的任务划分问题,提出一种基于簇的、层次敏感的划分LSCBP算法.该算法按照依赖优先、最早最先和碎片利用三原则构造了新的启发函数AS_Level,能够跟踪节点分配过程并进行动态调整;它克服了CBP算法机械选取节点进行划分的缺点,同时算法复杂度也增大到O{｜ V｜^2＋｜ E｜}.对随机生成的任务图（节点数小于250）的划分实验表明：对于相同的DAG,LSCBP算法能够比CBP算法获得更少的任务簇（可重构资源需求量）和簇间有向边（通信代价）.     

动态可重构系统的时域划分及其行为级算法的定量分析

对近20年来可重构系统的时域划分算法进行了分析,把它们分为网表级和行为级算法两大类.网表级时域划分算法主要采用网络流方法,使电路的面积、割网的个数等最小化,并使电路获得较小的时延和通信代价.我们对层划分、簇划分、增强静态列表调度、多目标时域划分等四种行为级时域划分算法进行了定量分析和比较,评价指标体系包括划分后的模块数、跨模块的输入/输出边数、划分后所有模块的执行总延迟.实验结果表明,层划分是四个算法划分后所有模块执行总延迟最小的;簇划分算法获得较少的跨模块的输入/输出边数;增强的静态列表调度和多目标时域划分两个算法在三个指标之间获得了一个好的折中.然而,这四个算法均没有考虑划分后的模块形状及模块的跨层映射成本.     

Parallel Algorithms for Partitioning Sorted Sets and Related Problems

We consider the following partition problem: Given a set S of n elements that is organized as k sorted subsets of size n/k each and given a parameter h with 1/k ≤ h ≤ n/k , partition S into g = O(n/(hk)) subsets D ₁ , D ₂ , . . . , D _g of size Θ(hk) each, such that, for any two indices i and j with 1 ≤ i < j ≤ g , no element in D _i is bigger than any element in D _j . Note that with various combinations of the values of parameters h and k , several fundamental problems, such as merging, sorting, and finding an approximate median, can be formulated as or be reduced to this partition problem. The partition problem also finds many applications in solving problems of parallel computing and computational geometry. In this paper we present efficient parallel algorithms for solving the partition problem and a number of its applications. Our parallel partition algorithm runs in O( log n) time using processors in the EREW PRAM model. The complexity bounds of our parallel partition algorithm on the respective special cases match those of the optimal EREW PRAM algorithms for merging, sorting, and finding an approximate median. Using our parallel partition algorithm, we are also able to obtain better complexity bounds (even possibly on a weaker parallel model) than the previously best known parallel algorithms for several important problems, including parallel multiselection, parallel multiranking, and parallel sorting of k sorted subsets.

Smoothed Analysis of Partitioning Algorithms for Euclidean Functionals

Euclidean optimization problems such as TSP and minimum-length matching admit fast partitioning algorithms that compute near-optimal solutions on typical instances. In order to explain this performance, we develop a general framework for the application of smoothed analysis to partitioning algorithms for Euclidean optimization problems. Our framework can be used to analyze both the running-time and the approximation ratio of such algorithms. We apply our framework to obtain smoothed analyses of Dyer and Frieze’s partitioning algorithm for Euclidean matching, Karp’s partitioning scheme for the TSP, a heuristic for Steiner trees, and a heuristic for degree-bounded minimum-length spanning trees.     

Algorithms and Support for Horizontal Class Partitioning in Object-Oriented Databases

Horizontal partitioning is a logical database design technique which facilitates efficient execution of queries by reducing the irrelevant objects accessed. Given a set of most frequently executed queries on a class, the horizontal partitioning generates horizontal class fragments (each of which is a subset of object instances of the class), that meet the queries requirements. There are two types of horizontal class partitioning, namely, primary and derived. Primary horizontal partitioning of a class is performed using predicates of queries accessing the class. Derived horizontal partitioning of a class is the partitioning of a class based on the horizontal partitioning of another class. We present algorithms for both primary and derived horizontal partitioning and discuss some issues in derived horizontal partitioning and present their solutions. There are two important aspects for supporting database operations on a partitioned database, namely, fragment localization for queries and object migration for updates. Fragment localization deals with identifying the horizontal fragments that contribute to the result of the query, and object migration deals with migrating objects from one class fragment to another due to updates. We provide novel solutions to these two problems, and finally we show the utility of horizontal partitioning for query processing.     

Server Allocation Algorithms for Tiered Systems

Many web-based systems have a tiered application architecture, in which a request needs to transverse all the tiers before finishing its processing. One of the most important QoS metrics for these applications is the expected response time for the user. Since the expected response time in any tier depends upon the number of servers allocated to this tier, and a request's total response time is the sum of the response times over all the tiers, many different configurations (number of servers allocated to each tier) can satisfy the expected response-time requirement. Naturally, one would like to find the configuration that minimizes the total system cost while satisfying the total response-time requirement. This is modeled as a non-linear optimization problem using an open-queuing network model of response time, which we call the server allocation problem for tiered systems (SAPTS). In this paper we study the computational complexity of SAPTS and design efficient algorithms to solve it. For a variable number of tiers, we show that the decision version of SAPTS is NP-complete. Then we design a simple two-approximation algorithm and a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS). If the number of tiers is a constant, we show that SAPTS is polynomial-time solvable. Furthermore, we design a fast polynomial-time exact algorithm to solve the important two-tier case. Most of our results extend to the general case in which each tier has an arbitrary response-time function.

Selection Algorithms for Parallel Disk Systems

With the widening gap between processor speeds and disk access speeds, the I/O bottleneck has become critical. Parallel disk systems have been introduced to alleviate this bottleneck. In this paper we present deterministic and randomized selection algorithms for parallel disk systems. The algorithms to be presented, in addition to being asymptotically optimal, have small underlying constants in their time bounds and hence have the potential of being practical.     

Submodular fractional programming for balanced clustering

We address the balanced clustering problem where cluster sizes are regularized with submodular functions. The objective function for balanced clustering is a submodular fractional function, i.e., the ratio of two submodular functions, and thus includes the well-known ratio cuts as special cases. In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for minimizing this objective function (submodular fractional programming) using recent submodular optimization techniques. The main idea is to utilize an algorithm to minimize the difference of two submodular functions, combined with the discrete Newton method. Thus, it can be applied to the objective function involving any submodular functions in both the numerator and the denominator, which enables us to design flexible clustering setups. We also give theoretical analysis on the algorithm, and evaluate the performance through comparative experiments with conventional algorithms by artificial and real datasets.

基于分治策略的组块分析

组块分析的主要任务是语块的识别和划分,它使句法分析的任务在某种程度上得到简化。针对长句子组块分析所遇到的困难,该文提出了一种基于分治策略的组块分析方法。该方法的基本思想是首先对句子进行最长名词短语识别,根据识别的结果,将句子分解为最长名词短语部分和句子框架部分;然后,针对不同的分析单元选用不同的模型加以分析,再将分析结果进行组合,完成整个组块分析过程。该方法将整句分解为更小的组块分析单元,降低了句子的复杂度。通过在宾州中文树库CTB4数据集上的实验结果显示,各种组块识别结果平均F1值结果为91.79%,优于目前其他的组块分析方法。     

Partitioning Planar Graphs with Vertex Costs: Algorithms and Applications

We prove separator theorems in which the size of the separator is minimized with respect to non-negative vertex costs. We show that for any planar graph G there exists a vertex separator of total sum of vertex costs at most and that this bound is optimal to within a constant factor. Moreover, such a separator can be found in linear time. This theorem implies a variety of other separation results. We describe applications of our separator theorems to graph embedding problems, to graph pebbling, and to multicommodity flow problems. Received June 1997; revised February 1999.
