| dc.description.abstract | For many algorithmic problems, traditional algorithms that optimise on the number of instructions executed prove expensive on I/Os. Novel and very di erent design techniques, when applied to these problems, can produce algorithms that are I/O e cient. This thesis adds to the growing chorus of such results. The computational models we use are the external memory model and the W-Stream model. On the external memory model, we obtain the following results. (1) An I/O e cient algorithm for computing minimum spanning trees of graphs that improves on the performance of the best known algorithm. (2) The rst external memory version of soft heap, an approximate meldable priority queue. (3) Hard heap, the rst meldable external memory priority queue that matches the amortised I/O performance of the known external memory priority queues, while allowing a meld operation at the same amortised cost. (4) I/O e cient exact, approximate and randomised algorithms for the minimum cut problem, which has not been explored before on the external memory model. (5) Some lower and upper bounds on I/Os for interval graphs. On the W-Stream model, we obtain the following results. (1) Algorithms for various tree problems and list ranking that match the performance of the best known algorithms and are easier to implement than them. (2) Pass e cient algorithms for sorting, and the maximal independent set problems, that improve on the best known algorithms. (3) Pass e cient algorithms for the graphs problems of nding vertex-colouring, approximate single source shortest paths, maximal matching, and approximate weighted vertex cover. (4) Lower bounds on passes for list ranking and maximal matching. We propose two variants of the W-Stream model, and design algorithms for the maximal independent set, vertex-colouring, and planar graph single source shortest paths problems on those models.. | en_US |
