Parallel Recognition of Series-Parallel Graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
Recently, He and Yesha gave an algorithm for recognizing directed series parallel graphs, in time O(log n) with linearly many EREW processors. We give a new algorithm for this problem, based on a structural characterization of series parallel graphs in terms of their ear decompositions. Our algorithm can recognize undirected as well as directed series parallel graphs. It can be implemented in the CRCW model of parallel computation to take time O(log n). In the EREW model the time is O(log n) but the number of processors required improves the bounds of the previous algorithm.

Ageing Orders of Series-Parallel and Parallel-Series Systems with Independent Subsystems Consisting of Dependent Components
In this paper, we consider series-parallel and parallel-series systems with independent subsystems consisting of dependent homogeneous components whose joint lifetimes are modeled by an Archimedean copula. Then, by considering two such systems with different numbers of components within each subsystem, we establish hazard rate and reversed hazard rate orderings between the two system lifetimes,...
متن کاملComparing Parallel Simulated Annealing, Parallel Vibrating Damp Optimization and Genetic Algorithm for Joint Redundancy-Availability Problems in a Series-Parallel System with Multi-State Components
In this paper, we study different methods of solving joint redundancy-availability optimization for series-parallel systems with multi-state components. We analyzed various effective factors on system availability in order to determine the optimum number and version of components in each sub-system and consider the effects of improving failure rates of each component in each sub-system and impr...
متن کاملMinimum convex piecewise linear cost tension problem on quasi-k series-parallel graphs
This article proposes an extension, combined with the out-of-kilter technique, of the aggregation method (that solves the minimum convex piecewise linear cost tension problem, or CPLCT, on series-parallel graphs) to solve CPLCT on quasi series-parallel graphs. To make this algorithm efficient, the key point is to find a "good" way of decomposing the graph into series-parallel subgraphs. Decompo...
متن کاملSpace Efficient Algorithms for Series-Parallel Graphs
The subclass of directed series-parallel graphs plays an important role in computer science. To determine whether a graph is series-parallel is a well studied problem in algorithmic graph theory. Fast sequential and parallel algorithms for this problem have been developed in a sequence of papers. For series-parallel graphs methods are also known to solve the reachability and the decomposition p...
متن کاملPreservation of Stochastic Orderings of Interdependent Series and Parallel Systems by Componentwise Switching to Exponentiated Models
This paper discusses the preservation of some stochastic orders between two interdependent series and parallel systems when the survival and distribution functions of all components switch to the exponentiated model. For the series systems, the likelihood ratio, hazard rate, usual, aging faster, aging intensity, convex transform, star, superadditive and dispersive orderings, and for the paralle...
