The basic library supports buffered and unbuffered asynchronous communication between any pair of processors, and a mechanism for synchronizing the processors in a barrier style. In ad-dition, it provides routines for collective communication on arbitrary subsets of processors, partition operations, and a zero-cost synchronization mechanism. Furthermore, some techniques used in its implementation deviate significantly from the techniques used in other BSP libraries.}},

  abstract     = {{A geometric spanner with vertex set P in Rd is a sparse approximation of the complete Euclidean graph determined by P. We introduce the notion of partitioned neighborhood graphs (PNGs), unifying and generalizing most constructions of spanners treated in literature. Two important parameters characterizing their properties are the outdegree k in N and the stretch factor f>1 describing the quality of approximation. PNGs have been throughly investigated with respect to small values of f. We present in this work results about small values of k. The aim of minimizing k rather than f arises from two observations:

* k determines the amount of space required for storing PNGs.

* Many algorithms employing a (previously constructed) spanner have running times depending on its outdegree.

Our results include, for fixed dimensions d as well as asymptotically, upper and lower bounds on this optimal value of k. The upper bounds are shown constructively and yield efficient algorithms for actually computing the corresponding PNGs even in degenerate cases.

  abstract     = {{We present a new ( O(n) ) algorithm to compute good orders for the point set of a Delaunay triangulation of ( n ) points in the plane. Such a good order makes reconstruction in ( O(n) ) time with a simple algorithm possible. In contrast to the algorithm of Snoeyink and van Kreveld cite1, which is based on independent sets, our algorithm uses a breadth first search (BFS) to obtain these orders. Both approaches construct such orders by repeatedly removing a constant fraction of vertices from the current triangulation. The advantage of the BFS approach is that we can give significantly better bounds on the fraction of removed points in a phase of the algorithm. We can prove that a single phase of our algorithm removes at least ( frac13 ) of the points, even if we restrict the degree of the points (at the time they are removed) to 6. We implemented and compared both algorithms. Our algorithms is slightly faster and achieves about 15% better vertex data compression when using a simple variable length code to encode the differences between two consecutive vertices of the given order.}},

  abstract     = {{We investigate the problem of constructing spanners for a given set of points that are tolerant for edge/vertex faults. Let S be a set of $n$ points in the d-dimensional space and let k be an integer number. A k-edge/vertex fault tolerant spanner for S has the property that after the deletion of k arbitrary edges/vertices each pair of points in the remaining graph is still connected by a short path.<br><br>Recently it was shown that for each set S of n points there exists a k-edge/vertex fault tolerant spanner with O(k^2 n) edges which can be constructed in O(n log n + k^2 n) time. Furthermore, it was shown that for each set S of n points there exists a k-edge/vertex fault tolerant spanner whose degree is bouned by O(c^k+1) for some constant c.<br><br>Our first contribution is a construction of a k-vertex fault tolerant spanner with O(kn) edges which is a tight bound. The computation takes O(n log^d-1 n + k n log log n) time. Then we show that the same k-vertex fault tolerant spanner is also k-edge fault tolerant. Thereafter, we construct a k-vertex fault tolerant spanner with O(k^2 n) edges whose degree is bounded by O(k^2). Finally, we give a more natural but stronger definition of k-edge fault tolerance which not necessarily can be satisfied if one allows only simple edges between the points of S. We investigate the question whether Steiner points help. We answer this question affirmatively and prove Theta(kn) bounds on the number of Steiner points and on the number of edges in such spanners.}},

First, we present a Las-Vegas algorithm that uniformly at random creates a star-shaped polygon whose vertices are given by a point set ( S ) of ( n ) points in the plane that does not admit degenerate star-shaped polygons. The expected running time of the algorithm is ( O(n^2log n) ) and it uses ( O(n) ) memory. We call a star-shaped polygon degenerate if its kernel has 0 area.<br><br>Secondly, we show how to count all star-shaped polygons whose vertices are a subset of ( S ) in ( O(n^5log n) ) time and ( O(n) ) space. The algorithm can also be used for random uniform generation. We also present lower and upper bounds on the number of star-shaped polygons.}},
