We consider the problem of constructing binary heaps on constant degree networks performing compare-exchange operations only. The heap data structure, introduced by William and Williams [Comm. ACM 7 (6) (1964) 347-348], has many applications and, therefore, has been intensively studied in sequential
## Abstract In 1978 Woodall [6] conjectured the following: in a planar digraph the size of a shortest cycle is equal to the maximum cardinality of a collection of disjoint tranversals of cycles. We prove that this conjecture is true when the digraph is series‐parallel. In fact, we prove a stronger
