Finding shuffle words that represent optimal scheduling of shared memory access
conference contribution
posted on 2011-05-31, 14:26 authored by Daniel Reidenbach, Markus L. SchmidIn the present paper, we introduce and study the problem
of computing, for any given finite set of words, a shuffle word with a
minimum so-called scope coincidence degree. The scope coincidence degree is the maximum number of different symbols that parenthesise any
position in the shuffle word. This problem is motivated by an application of a new automaton model and can be regarded as the problem of
scheduling shared memory accesses of some parallel processes in a way
that minimises the number of memory cells required. We investigate the
complexity of this problem and show that it can be solved in polynomial
time.
