X Abstract

and with a nave algorithm. We compare the performance of these algorithms as a function of the number of queries performed and the imbalance of the tree. For DAGs, we compare a transitive-closure based algorithm, an intelligent traversal algorithm, and our input-sensitive algorithm that uses LCA in trees. We compare the performance of these algorithms as a function of DAG density. We show that the input-sensitive algorithm outperforms the other two algorithms on all test data. Keywords:...

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
