In this paper we consider the following modification of the iterative search problem. We are given a tree $T$, so that a dynamic catalog $C(v)$ is associated with every tree node $v$. For any $x$ and for any node-to-root path $\pi$ in $T$,…
We revisit parallel-innermost term rewriting as a model of parallel computation on inductive data structures and provide a corresponding notion of runtime complexity parametric in the size of the start term. We propose automatic techniques…
Suffix arrays encode the lexicographical order of all suffixes of a text and are often combined with the Longest Common Prefix array (LCP) to simulate navigational queries on the suffix tree in reduced space. In space-critical applications…
Although real-world text datasets, such as DNA sequences, are far from being uniformly random, average-case string searching algorithms perform significantly better than worst-case ones in most applications of interest. In this paper, we…
In this paper we study the classical problem of throughput maximization. In this problem we have a collection $J$ of $n$ jobs, each having a release time $r_j$, deadline $d_j$, and processing time $p_j$. They have to be scheduled…
The vast amounts of data used in social, business or traffic networks, biology and other natural sciences are often managed in graph-based data sets, consisting of a few thousand up to billions and trillions of vertices and edges,…
We study graph connectivity problem in MPC model. On an undirected graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, $O(\log n)$ round connectivity algorithms have been known for over 35 years. However, no algorithms with better complexity bounds were…
We show that the Hausdorff distance for two sets of non-intersecting line segments can be computed in parallel in $O(\log^2 n)$ time using O(n) processors in a CREW-PRAM computation model. We discuss how some parts of the sequential…
Task graphs have been studied for decades as a foundation for scheduling irregular parallel applications and incorporated in programming models such as OpenMP. While many high-performance parallel libraries are based on task graphs, they…
As data are increasingly modeled as graphs for expressing complex relationships, the tree pattern query on graph-structured data becomes an important type of queries in real-world applications. Most practical query languages, such as XQuery…
The Suffix Array $SA_S[1\ldots n]$ of an $n$-length string $S$ is a lexicographically sorted array of the suffixes of $S$. The suffix array is one of the most well known and widely used data structures in string algorithms. We present a…
Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a collection of $D$ documents, which are strings over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, of total length $n$. We describe a data structure that uses linear space and and reports $k$ most relevant documents that contain a…
Given a string $S$ over an alphabet $\Sigma$, the 'string indexing problem' is to preprocess $S$ to subsequently support efficient pattern matching queries, i.e., given a pattern string $P$ report all the occurrences of $P$ in $S$. In this…
Palindromes are strings that read the same forward and backward. Problems of computing palindromic structures in strings have been studied for many years with a motivation of their application to biology. The longest palindrome problem is…
Given a binary string $\omega$ over the alphabet $\{0, 1\}$, a vector $(a, b)$ is a Parikh vector if and only if a factor of $\omega$ contains exactly $a$ occurrences of $0$ and $b$ occurrences of $1$. Answering whether a vector is a Parikh…
Indexing very large collections of strings, such as those produced by the widespread next generation sequencing technologies, heavily relies on multistring generalization of the Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT): large requirements of…
Sampling (evenly) the suffixes from the suffix array is an old idea trading the pattern search time for reduced index space. A few years ago Claude et al. showed an alphabet sampling scheme allowing for more efficient pattern searches…
The fundamental question considered in algorithms on strings is that of indexing, that is, preprocessing a given string for specific queries. By now we have a number of efficient solutions for this problem when the queries ask for an exact…
We consider a range of simply stated dynamic data structure problems on strings. An update changes one symbol in the input and a query asks us to compute some function of the pattern of length $m$ and a substring of a longer text. We give…
In this paper, we explore worst-case solutions for the problems of single and multiple matching on strings in the word RAM model with word length w. In the first problem, we have to build a data structure based on a pattern p of length m…
