چکیده

Received (received date) Revised (revised date) Communicated by (Editor Name) ABSTRACT We investigate parallel algorithms to compute recursively deened functions. Our computational model are parallel random access machines (PRAM's). We preferably make use of the OROW-PRAM (owner read, owner write), a model supposed to be even weaker and more realistic than the EREW-PRAM (exclusive read, exclusive write) and that still provides the opportunities of a completely connected processor network. For OROW-PRAM's we show that our parallel algorithms are work-optimal.

Simple Linear Work Suffix Array Construction

A suffix array represents the suffixes of a string in sorted order. Being a simpler and more compact alternative to suffix trees, it is an important tool for full text indexing and other string processing tasks. We introduce the skew algorithm for suffix array construction over integer alphabets that can be implemented to run in linear time using integer sorting as its only nontrivial subroutin...

Efficient Matrix Chain Ordering in Polylog Time

The matrix chain ordering problem is to find the cheapest way to multiply a chain of n matrices, where the matrices are pairwise compatible but of varying dimensions. Here we give several new parallel algorithms including O(lg3 n)-time and n/lgn-processor algorithms for solving the matrix chain ordering problem and for solving an optimal triangulation problem of convex polygons on the common CR...

Hierarchically Optimal Average Reward Reinforcement Learning

Two notions of optimality have been explored in previous work on hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL): hierarchical optimality, or the optimal policy in the space defined by a task hierarchy, and a weaker local model called recursive optimality. In this paper, we introduce two new average-reward HRL algorithms for finding hierarchically optimal policies. We compare them to our previously r...
