โœฆ Synopsis


A core of a tree (T=(V, E)) is a path in (T) which minimizes (\Sigma_{v \in V}) (d(v, P)), where (d(v, P)), the distance from a vertex (v) to path (P), is defined as (\min _{u \in P} d(v, u)). We present an optimal parallel algorithm to find a core of (T) in (O(\log n)) time using (O(n / \log n)) processors on an EREW PRAM machine, where (n) is the number of vertices of tree (T).

In this paper, we propose efficient parallel algorithms on the EREW PRAM for optimally locating in a tree network a path-shaped facility and a tree-shaped facility of a specified length. Edges in the tree network have arbitrary positive lengths. Two optimization criteria are considered: minimum ecce

Given a tree containing n vertices, consider the sum of the distance between all ลฝ . vertices and a k-leaf subtree subtree which contains exactly k leaves . A k-tree core is a k-leaf subtree which minimizes the sum of the distances. In this paper, we propose a linear time algorithm for finding a k-t

An outerplanar graph is a planar graph that can be imbedded in the plane in such a way that all vertices lie on the exterior face. An outerplanar graph is maximal if no edge can be added to the graph without violating the outerplanarity. In this paper, an optimal parallel algorithm is proposed on th
