In this paper we describe a technique for finding efficient parallel algorithms for problems on directed graphs that involve checking the existence of certain kinds of paths in the graph. This technique provides efficient algorithms for finding dominators in flow graphs, performing interval and loop analysis on reducible flow graphs, and finding the feedback vertices of a digraph. Each of these algorithms takesO(log2 n) time using the same number of processors needed for fast matrix multiplication. All of these bounds are for an EREW PRAM. 相似文献

Algorithms used in data mining and bioinformatics have to deal with huge amount of data efficiently.In many applications,the data are supposed to have explicit or implicit structures.To develop efficient algorithms for such data,we have to propose possible structure models and test if the models are feasible.Hence,it is important to make a compact model for structured data,and enumerate all instances efficiently.There are few graph classes besides trees that can be used for a model.In this paper,we inves... 相似文献

Computing an optimal solution to the knapsack problem is known to be NP-hard. Consequently, fast parallel algorithms for finding such a solution without using an exponential number of processors appear unlikely. An attractive alternative is to compute an approximate solution to this problem rapidly using a polynomial number of processors. In this paper, we present an efficient parallel algorithm for finding approximate solutions to the 0–1 knapsack problem. Our algorithm takes an , 0 < < 1, as a parameter and computes a solution such that the ratio of its deviation from the optimal solution is at most a fraction of the optimal solution. For a problem instance having n items, this computation uses O(n5/2/3/2) processors and requires O(log3n + log2nlog(1/)) time. The upper bound on the processor requirement of our algorithm is established by reducing it to a problem on weighted bipartite graphs. This processor complexity is a significant improvement over that of other known parallel algorithms for this problem. 相似文献

We present the first efficient parallel algorithms for recognizing some subclasses of circular arc graphs including circular arc graphs and proper interval graphs. These algorithms run in O(log2
n) time withO(n
3) processors on a CRCW PRAM. An intersection representation can also be constructed within the same resource bounds. Furthermore, we propose some new characterizations of circular arc graphs and proper interval graphs.Portions of this paper have appeared in preliminary form in theProceedings of the 1989 IEEE international Symposium on Circuits and Systems [9], theProceedings of the 1989 Workshop on Algorithms and Data Structures [10], and theProceedings of the 1990 Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry [11]. 相似文献

In this paper, we study the problem of implementing standard data structures on a hypercube multiprocessor. We present a technique for efficiently executing multiple independent search processes on a class of graphs called ordered h-level graphs. We show how this technique can be utilized to implement a segment tree on a hypercube, thereby obtaining O(long2n) time algorithms for solving the next element search problem, the trapezoidal composition problem, and the triangulation problem. 相似文献

This paper presents algorithms whose input is an undirected graph, and whose output is a tree decomposition of width that
approximates the optimal, the treewidth of that graph. The algorithms differ in their computation time and their approximation guarantees. The first algorithm works
in polynomial-time and finds a factor-O(log OPT) approximation, where OPT is the treewidth of the graph. This is the first polynomial-time algorithm that approximates the optimal by a factor that
does not depend on n, the number of nodes in the input graph. As a result, we get an algorithm for finding pathwidth within a factor of O(log OPT⋅log n) from the optimal. We also present algorithms that approximate the treewidth of a graph by constant factors of 3.66, 4, and
4.5, respectively and take time that is exponential in the treewidth. These are more efficient than previously known algorithms
by an exponential factor, and are of practical interest. Finding triangulations of minimum treewidth for graphs is central
to many problems in computer science. Real-world problems in artificial intelligence, VLSI design and databases are efficiently
solvable if we have an efficient approximation algorithm for them. Many of those applications rely on weighted graphs. We
extend our results to weighted graphs and weighted treewidth, showing similar approximation results for this more general notion. We report on experimental results confirming the effectiveness
of our algorithms for large graphs associated with real-world problems. 相似文献

We present a randomized algorithm for finding maximum matchings in planar graphs in timeO(n
ω/2), whereω is the exponent of the best known matrix multiplication algorithm. Sinceω<2.38, this algorithm breaks through theO(n
1.5) barrier for the matching problem. This is the first result of this kind for general planar graphs. We also present an algorithm
for generating perfect matchings in planar graphs uniformly at random usingO(n
ω/2) arithmetic operations. Our algorithms are based on the Gaussian elimination approach to maximum matchings introduced in
[16].

This paper presents improved algorithms for matroid-partitioning problems, such as finding a maximum cardinality set of edges of a graph that can be partitioned intok forests, and finding as many disjoint spanning trees as possible. The notion of a clump in a matroid sum is introduced, and efficient algorithms for clumps are presented. Applications of these algorithms are given to problems arising in the study of the structural rigidity of graphs, the Shannon switching game, and others.This is a revised and expanded version of a paper appearing in theProceedings of the 20th Annual ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing, 1988.

We say a vertex v in a graph G
covers a vertex w if v=w or if v and w are adjacent. A subset of vertices of G is a dominating set if it collectively covers all vertices in the graph. The dominating set problem, which is NP-hard, consists of finding a
smallest possible dominating set for a graph. The straightforward greedy strategy for finding a small dominating set in a
graph consists of successively choosing vertices which cover the largest possible number of previously uncovered vertices.
Several variations on this greedy heuristic are described and the results of extensive testing of these variations is presented.
A more sophisticated procedure for choosing vertices, which takes into account the number of ways in which an uncovered vertex
may be covered, appears to be the most successful of the algorithms which are analyzed. For our experimental testing, we used
both random graphs and graphs constructed by test case generators which produce graphs with a given density and a specified
size for the smallest dominating set. We found that these generators were able to produce challenging graphs for the algorithms,
thus helping to discriminate among them, and allowing a greater variety of graphs to be used in the experiments.

We present efficient algorithms for solving several fundamental graph-theoretic problems on a Linear Array with a Reconfigurable Pipelined Bus System (LARPBS), one of the recently proposed models of computation based on optical buses. Our algorithms include finding connected components, minimum spanning forest, biconnected components, bridges and articulation points for an undirected graph. We compute the connected components and minimum spanning forest of a graph in O(log n) time using O(m+n) processors where m and n are the number of edges and vertices in the graph and m=O(n
2) for a dense graph. Both the processor and time complexities of these two algorithms match the complexities of algorithms on the Arbitrary and Priority CRCW PRAM models which are two of the strongest PRAM models. The algorithms for these two problems published by Li et al. [7] have been considered to be the most efficient on the LARPBS model till now. Their algorithm [7] for these two problems require O(log n) time and O(n
3/log n) processors. Hence, our algorithms have the same time complexity but require less processors. Our algorithms for computing biconnected components, bridges and articulation points of a graph run in O(log n) time on an LARPBS with O(n
2) processors. No previous algorithm was known for these latter problems on the LARPBS. 相似文献

There is substantial literature dealing with fixed parameter algorithms for the dominating set problem on various families
of graphs. In this paper, we give a k
O(dk)
n time algorithm for finding a dominating set of size at most k in a d-degenerated graph with n vertices. This proves that the dominating set problem is fixed-parameter tractable for degenerated graphs. For graphs that
do not contain K
h
as a topological minor, we give an improved algorithm for the problem with running time (O(h))
hk
n. For graphs which are K
h
-minor-free, the running time is further reduced to (O(log h))
hk/2
n. Fixed-parameter tractable algorithms that are linear in the number of vertices of the graph were previously known only for
planar graphs.
For the families of graphs discussed above, the problem of finding an induced cycle of a given length is also addressed. For
every fixed H and k, we show that if an H-minor-free graph G with n vertices contains an induced cycle of size k, then such a cycle can be found in O(n) expected time as well as in O(nlog n) worst-case time. Some results are stated concerning the (im)possibility of establishing linear time algorithms for the more
general family of degenerated graphs.

This paper describes BBMCW, a new efficient exact maximum clique algorithm tailored for large sparse graphs which can be bit-encoded directly into memory without a heavy performance penalty. These graphs occur in real-life problems when some form of locality may be exploited to reduce their scale. One such example is correspondence graphs derived from data association problems. The new algorithm is based on the bit-parallel kernel used by the BBMC family of published exact algorithms. BBMCW employs a new bitstring encoding that we denote ‘watched’, because it is reminiscent of the ‘watched literal’ technique used in satisfiability and other constraint problems. The new encoding reduces the number of spurious operations computed by the BBMC bit-parallel kernel in large sparse graphs. Moreover, BBMCW also improves on bound computation proposed in the literature for bit-parallel solvers. Experimental results show that the new algorithm performs better than prior algorithms over data sets of both real and synthetic sparse graphs. In the real data sets, the improvement in performance averages more than two orders of magnitude with respect to the state-of-the-art exact solver IncMaxCLQ. 相似文献

Given a set of n intervals representing an interval graph, the problem of finding a maximum matching between pairs of disjoint (nonintersecting)
intervals has been considered in the sequential model. In this paper we present parallel algorithms for computing maximum
cardinality matchings among pairs of disjoint intervals in interval graphs in the EREW PRAM and hypercube models. For the
general case of the problem, our algorithms compute a maximum matching in O( log
3
n) time using O(n/ log
2
n) processors on the EREW PRAM and using n processors on the hypercubes. For the case of proper interval graphs, our algorithm runs in O( log n ) time using O(n) processors if the input intervals are not given already sorted and using O(n/ log n ) processors otherwise, on the EREW PRAM. On n -processor hypercubes, our algorithm for the proper interval case takes O( log n log log n ) time for unsorted input and O( log n ) time for sorted input. Our parallel results also lead to optimal sequential algorithms for computing maximum matchings
among disjoint intervals. In addition, we present an improved parallel algorithm for maximum matching between overlapping
intervals in proper interval graphs.

A system of tabular invariants on graphs is proposed, and their properties and possibilities of their use for construction of efficient algorithms of solution of some "difficult to solve" problems on graphs are investigated. The notion of an S
(p)-set is formulated and the theorem on the ordering of such sets is proved. Empirical estimates are obtained for the failure probability of first- and second-order tabular invariants and ordered vectors of degrees of nodes (-invariants) of graphs whose number of nodes varies from 8 to 20. 相似文献

In the paper, an efficient parallel implementation of Edmonds' algorithm is suggested for finding optimum graph branching on an abstract model of the SIMD type with vertical data processing (STAR machine). For this, associative parallel algorithms for finding critical circuit and its contraction, as well as for unfolding embedded critical circuits, are constructed for directed weighted graphs represented as a list of arcs and their weights. It is shown that the execution of Edmonds' algorithm on a STAR machine requires O(nlogn) time, where nis the number of graph vertexes. Basic advantages of the parallel implementation of Edmonds' algorithm compared to its implementation on sequential computers are discussed. 相似文献

The problem of finding shortest paths arises in many contexts; testing restoration algorithms and developing design packages for large telecommunications networks are two cases where the simple task of finding sets of restoration paths can consume up to 95 per cent of the execution time of an application program. This paper presents experimental studies of several well-known shortest-paths algorithms adapted to the task of finding the k-successively-shortest link-disjoint replacement paths for restoration in a telecommunications network with n nodes. The implementations range in complexity from O(kn2) when based on Dijkstra's original method, through several improvements to an efficient implementation of O(kn[v+longn]) complexity, and finally to an O(kn) implementation for the special case of edge-sparse graphs with small integer edge weights. Here v is the maximum degree of a node in the network. Several alternatives were tested during the course of these studies, particularly with a view to minimizing the number of heap updates, These alternatives are possible because we are searching for several paths between a given pair of nodes, rather than just one path between one or more pairs of nodes. Two fairly straightforward changes yield a decrease in execution time, whereas a more complex heap management strategy consumes as much time in the added code as it releases from the main routine. Experimental results confirm the theoretical complexity of q k n log n) and demonstrate a speed-up of nearly an order of magnitude over the simpler O(kn2) implementation in the largest networks tested. The optimized implementation is recommended for planning and operational applications of k-shortest paths rerouting for telecommunications network restoration and restorable network design. If hop counts or small integer link weights can be used to measure distances, then the qkn) implementation is recommended, as typical telecommunications networks are edge-sparse. 相似文献

In this paper we study the problems of detecting holes and antiholes in general undirected graphs, and we present algorithms
for these problems. For an input graph G on n vertices and m edges, our algorithms run in O(n + m2) time and require O(n m) space; we thus provide a solution to the open problem posed by Hayward et al. asking for an O(n4)-time algorithm for finding holes in arbitrary graphs. The key element of the algorithms is the use of the depth-first-search
traversal on appropriate auxiliary graphs in which moving between any two adjacent vertices is equivalent to walking along
a P4 (i.e., a chordless path on four vertices) of the input graph or on its complement, respectively. The approach can be generalized
so that for a fixed constant k ≥ 5 we obtain an O(nk-1)-time algorithm for the detection of a hole (antihole resp.) on at least k vertices.
Additionally, we describe a different approach which allows us to detect antiholes in graphs that do not contain chordless
cycles on five vertices in O(n + m2) time requiring O(n + m) space.
Again, for a fixed constant k ≥ 6, the approach can be extended to yield O(nk-2)-time and O(n2)-space algorithms for detecting holes (antiholes resp.) on at least k vertices in graphs which do not contain holes (antiholes
resp.) on k - 1 vertices. Our algorithms are simple and can be easily used in practice. Finally, we also show how our detection
algorithms can be augmented so that they return a hole or an antihole whenever such a structure is detected in the input graph;
the augmentation takes O(n + m) time and space. 相似文献

We present a new approach for the problem of finding overlapping communities in graphs and social networks. Our approach consists of a novel problem definition and three accompanying algorithms. We are particularly interested in graphs that have labels on their vertices, although our methods are also applicable to graphs with no labels. Our goal is to find k communities so that the total edge density over all k communities is maximized. In the case of labeled graphs, we require that each community is succinctly described by a set of labels. This requirement provides a better understanding for the discovered communities. The proposed problem formulation leads to the discovery of vertex-overlapping and dense communities that cover as many graph edges as possible. We capture these properties with a simple objective function, which we solve by adapting efficient approximation algorithms for the generalized maximum-coverage problem and the densest-subgraph problem. Our proposed algorithm is a generic greedy scheme. We experiment with three variants of the scheme, obtained by varying the greedy step of finding a dense subgraph. We validate our algorithms by comparing with other state-of-the-art community-detection methods on a variety of performance measures. Our experiments confirm that our algorithms achieve results of high quality in terms of the reported measures, and are practical in terms of performance. 相似文献
