The Design of Divide and Conquer Algorithms
The structure common to a class of divide and conquer algorithms is represented by a program scheme. A theorem is presented which relates the functionality of a divide and conquer algorithm to its structure and the functionalities of its subalgorithms. Several strategies for designing divide and conquer algorithms arise from this theorem and they are used to formally derive algorithms for sorti...
متن کاملA Design of Automatic Visualizations for Divide-and-Conquer Algorithms
The paper addresses the design of program visualizations adequate to represent divideand-conquer algorithms. Firstly, we present the results of several surveys performed on the visualization of divide-and-conquer algorithms in the literature. Secondly, we make a proposal for three complementary, coordinated views of these algorithms. In summary, they are based an animation of the activation tre...
متن کاملDivide-and-Conquer Algorithms on the Hypercube
We show how to implement divide-and-conquer algorithms without undue overhead on a wide class of networks. We give an optimal generic divide-and-conquer implementation on hypercubes for the class of divide-and-conquer algorithms for which the total size of the subproblems on any level of the recursion does not exceed the parent problem size. For this implementation, appropriately sized subcubes...
متن کاملSpace-efficient geometric divide-and-conquer algorithms
We develop a number of space-efficient tools including an approach to simulate divide-and-conquer space-efficiently, stably selecting and unselecting a subset from a sorted set, and computing the kth smallest element in one dimension from a multi-dimensional set that is sorted in another dimension. We then apply these tools to solve several geometric problems that have solutions using some form...
متن کاملSkeletons for Divide and Conquer Algorithms
Algorithmic skeletons intend to simplify parallel programming by providing recurring forms of program structure as predefined components. We present a fully distributed task parallel skeleton for a very general class of divide and conquer algorithms for MIMD machines with distributed memory. This approach is compared to a simple masterworker design. Based on experimental results for different e...
