โœฆ Synopsis


In this paper we propose a family of algorithms combining tree-clustering with conditioning that trade space for time. Such algorithms are useful for reasoning in probabilistic and deterministic networks as well as for accomplishing optimization tasks. By analyzing the problem structure, the user can select from a spectrum of algorithms, the one that best meets a given time-space specification. To determine the potential of this approach we analyze the structural properties of problems coming from the circuit diagnosis domain. The analysis demonstrates how the tradeoffs associated with various hybrids can be used for each problem instance.

We give the first nontrivial model-independent time space tradeoffs for satisfiability. Namely, we show that SAT cannot be solved in n 1+o(1) time and n 1&= space for any =>0 general random-access nondeterministic Turing machines. In particular, SAT cannot be solved deterministically by a Turing mac

We obtain the first non-trivial time-space tradeoff lower bound for functions f: {0, 1} n Q {0, 1} on general branching programs by exhibiting a Boolean function f that requires exponential size to be computed by any branching program of length (1+e) n, for some constant e > 0. We also give the firs

Though it is common practice to treat synchronization primitives for multiprocessors as abstract data types, they are in reality machine instructions on registers. A crucial theoretical question with practical implications is the relationship between the size of the register and its computational po
