Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立中央大學 === 資訊及電子工程研究所 === 83 === Analysis of the network reliability is of major importance in computer, communication, power networks, and other networks. The $K$-terminal reliability problem is to compute the probability that the $K$-vertices on the network are still connected. In general, the problem is NP-hard in general graph. For some special graphs (such as partial 2-trees), the K- terminal reliability problem can be solved in linear time by a sequential algorithm. In this paper, we present parallel algorithms to solve the K-terminal reliability in 2-trees and partial 2-trees with C(m, n) processors in O(log n) time on a CRCW PRAM, where C(m, n) is the number of processors required to find connected components of a graph with m edges and n vertices in logarithmic time.
