Hashing techniques have the amortized time complexity of O(1). Although in worst case, searching a hash table can take as much as θ(n) time [1]. On the other hand, Trie tree data structure is also well renowned data structure. The ideal lookup time for searching a string of length m in database of n strings using Trie data structure is O(m) [2]. In the present study, we have proposed a novel Prime Box parallel search algorithm for searching a string of length m in a dictionary of dynamically increasing size, with a worst case search time complexity of O(log2m). We have exploited parallel techniques over this novel algorithm to achieve this search time complexity. Also this prime Box search is independent of the total words present in the dictionary, which makes it more suitable for dynamic dictionaries with increasing size.展开更多

A variety of computer applications provide the string matching service for their end users. The remarkable boost in the number of data that is created and kept by modern computational devices influences researchers to obtain even more powerful methods for coping with this problem. In this research, the Quick Search string matching algorithm are adopted to be implemented under the multi-core environment using OpenMP directive which can be employed to reduce the overall execution time of the program. English text, Proteins and DNA data types are utilized to examine the effect of parallelization and implementation of Quick Search string matching algorithm on multi-core based environment. Experimental outcomes reveal that the overall performance of the mentioned string matching algorithm has been improved, and the improvement in the execution time which has been obtained is considerable enough to recommend the multi-core environment as the suitable platform for parallelizing the Quick Search string matching algorithm.展开更多

The algorithm consists of two modes: scanning and detecting. Search diagrams are introduced as a way to describe parallel searching algorithms on unbounded intervals. Dynamic programming equations, combined with a series of liner programming problems, describe relations between results for every pair of successive evaluations of function f in parallel. Properties of optimal search strategies are derived from these equations. The worst-case complexity analysis shows that, if the maximizer is located on a priori unknown interval (n-1], then it can be detected after cp(n)=「2log「p/2」+1(n+1)」-1 parallel evaluations of f(x), where p is the number of processors.展开更多

We design a multi-objective TSP in a stochastic dynamic environment. This dynamic setting of the problem is very useful for routing in ad-hoc networks. The proposed search system first uses parallel processors to identify the extreme solutions of the search space for each ofk objectives individually at the same time. These solutions are merged into the so-called hit-frequency matrix E. The solutions in E are then searched by parallel processors and evaluated for dominance relationship. The search system is implemented in two different ways master-worker architecture and pipeline architecture.展开更多

Then the lower bound Ω(m+h log h) of the running time for the general sequential B&B algorithm and the lower bound Ω(m/p+h log p) for the general parallel best-first B&B algorithm in PRAM-CREW are proposed, where p is the number of processors available. Moreover, the lower bound Ω(M/p+H+(H/p) log (H/p)) is presented for the parallel algorithms on distributed memory system, where M and H represent total number of the active nodes and that of the expanded nodes processed by p processors, respectively. In addition, a nearly fastest general parallel best-first B&B algorithm is put forward. The parallel algorithm is the fastest one as p = max{hε, r}, where ε = 1/ rootlogh, and r is the largest branch number of the nodes in the state-space tree.展开更多
