Algorithms for Finding Optimal Disjoint Paths Around a Rectangle
نویسندگان
چکیده
We give algorithms to find the optimal disjoint paths around a rectangle. The set of disjoint paths connects a set of sources to a set of sinks (no fixed pairing between the sources and sinks) on the boundary of a rectangle where either the longest path length or the total path length is minimized. One algorithm finds the set of disjoint paths with the longest path length minimized in O(n log n) time and the other finds the set of disjoint paths with the total path length minimized in O(n) time. In particular, if the sets of sources and sinks lie on a straight line, the set of disjoint paths with the minimum longest path length or minimum total path length can be found in O(n) or O(n) time respectively.

Finding Minimum Energy Disjoint Paths in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks
We develop algorithms for finding minimum energy disjoint paths in an all-wireless network, for both the node and link-disjoint cases. Our major results include a novel polynomial time algorithm that optimally solves the minimum energy 2 link-disjoint paths problem, as well as a polynomial time algorithm for the minimum energy k node-disjoint paths problem. In addition, we present efficient heu...
متن کاملOPTIMALIZATION PHASE USING GRAPH MODELLING FOR RELIABLE BUILDING COMPLEXES
During the planning phase of modern, complex, block-structured, large-area located, but still landscape-harmonized health-care buildings, the key is the optimal positioning of the blocks and functions, simultaneously ensuring the most-effective backup-paths for any transportation route failure in the buildings in order to speed up system operation, reduce maintenance costs and especially to imp...
متن کاملAlgorithm for finding the largest inscribed rectangle in polygon
In many industrial and non-industrial applications, it is necessary to identify the largest inscribed rectangle in a certain shape. The problem is studied for convex and non-convex polygons. Another criterion is the direction of the rectangle: axis aligned or general. In this paper a heuristic algorithm is presented for finding the largest axis aligned inscribed rectangle in a general polygon. ...
متن کاملEdge-disjoint paths in a grid bounded by two nested rectangles
This paper presents an algorithm for finding edge-disjoint paths in a given plane grid bounded by two nested rectangles. A pair of vertices on the boundary of the same rectangle are designated as terminals for each of the paths. The number of terminals lying on each boundary vertex is determined by the degree of the boundary vertex. Every vertex of degree 2 has either 0 or 2 terminals lying on ...
متن کاملEfficient algorithms for minimal disjoint path problems on chordal graphs
Disjoint paths have applications in establishing bottleneck-free communication between processors in a network. The problem of finding minimum delay disjoint paths in a network directly reduces to the problem of finding the minimal disjoint paths in the graph which models the network. Previous results for this problem on chordal graphs were an O(| V | | E |) algorithm for 2 edge disjoint paths ...
