  1. Priority Queues Two kinds of priority queues: Min priority queue. Max priority queue.

  2. Min Priority Queue Collection of elements. Each element has a priority or key. Supports following operations: empty size insert an element into the priority queue (push) get element with min priority (top) remove element with min priority (pop)

  3. Max Priority Queue Collection of elements. Each element has a priority or key. Supports following operations: empty size insert an element into the priority queue (push) get element with max priority (top) remove element with max priority (pop)

  4. Complexity Of Operations Use a heap or a leftist tree (both are defined later). empty, size, and top => O(1) time insert (push) and remove (pop) => O(log n) time where n is the size of the priority queue

  5. Applications Sorting use element key as priority insert elements to be sorted into a priority queue remove/pop elements in priority order if a min priority queue is used, elements are extracted in ascending order of priority (or key) if a max priority queue is used, elements are extracted in descending order of priority (or key)

  6. Sorting Example Sort five elements whose keys are 6, 8, 2, 4, 1 using a max priority queue. Insert the five elements into a max priority queue. Do fiveremove max operations placing removed elements into the sorted array from right to left.

  7. After Inserting Into Max Priority Queue 8 4 6 Max Priority Queue 1 2 Sorted Array

  8. After First Remove Max Operation 4 6 Max Priority Queue 1 2 Sorted Array 8

  9. After Second Remove Max Operation 4 Max Priority Queue 1 2 Sorted Array 6 8

  10. After Third Remove Max Operation Max Priority Queue 1 2 Sorted Array 4 6 8

  11. After Fourth Remove Max Operation Max Priority Queue 1 Sorted Array 2 4 6 8

  12. After Fifth Remove Max Operation Max Priority Queue Sorted Array 1 2 4 6 8

  13. Complexity Of Sorting Sort n elements. n insert operations => O(n log n) time. n remove max operations => O(n log n) time. total time is O(n log n). compare with O(n2) for insertion sort of Lecture 1.

  14. Heap Sort Uses a max priority queue that is implemented as a heap. Initial insert operations are replaced by a heap initialization step that takes O(n) time.

  15. Machine Scheduling m identical machines (drill press, cutter, sander, etc.) n jobs/tasks to be performed assign jobs to machines so that the time at which the last job completes is minimum

  16. Machine Scheduling Example 3 machines and 7 jobs job times are [6, 2, 3, 5, 10, 7, 14] possible schedule 6 13 A 2 7 21 B 3 13 C time ----------->

  17. Machine Scheduling Example 6 13 A 2 7 21 B 3 13 Finish time = 21 Objective: Find schedules with minimum finish time. C time ----------->

  18. LPT Schedules Longest Processing Time first. Jobs are scheduled in the order 14, 10, 7, 6, 5, 3, 2 Each job is scheduled on the machine on which it finishes earliest.

  19. LPT Schedule 14 16 A [14, 10, 7, 6, 5, 3, 2] 10 15 B 7 13 16 C Finish time is 16!

  20. LPT Schedule LPT rule does not guarantee minimum finish time schedules. (LPT Finish Time)/(Minimum Finish Time) <= 4/3 - 1/(3m) where m is number of machines. Usually LPT finish time is much closer to minimum finish time. Minimum finish time scheduling is NP-hard.

  21. NP-hard Problems Infamous class of problems for which no one has developed a polynomial time algorithm. That is, no algorithm whose complexity is O(nk) for any constant k is known for any NP-hard problem. The class includes thousands of real-world problems. Highly unlikely that any NP-hard problem can be solved by a polynomial time algorithm.

  22. NP-hard Problems Since even polynomial time algorithms with degree k > 3 (say) are not practical for large n, we must change our expectations of the algorithm that is used. Usually develop fast heuristics for NP-hard problems. Algorithm that gives a solution close to best. Runs in acceptable amount of time. LPT rule is good heuristic for minimum finish time scheduling.

  23. Complexity Of LPT Scheduling Sort jobs into decreasing order of task time. O(n log n) time (n is number of jobs) Schedule jobs in this order. assign job to machine that becomes available first must find minimum of m (m is number of machines) finish times takes O(m) time using simple strategy so need O(mn) time to schedule all n jobs.

  24. Using A Min Priority Queue Min priority queue has the finish times of the m machines. Initial finish times are all 0. To schedule a job remove machine with minimum finish time from the priority queue. Update the finish time of the selected machine and insert the machine back into the priority queue.

  25. Using A Min Priority Queue m put operations to initialize priority queue 1 remove min and 1 insert to schedule each job each insert and remove min operation takes O(log m) time time to schedule is O(n log m) overall time is O(n log n + n log m) = O(n log (mn))

  26. Huffman Codes Discussed in Chapter 7 of text.

  27. Min Tree Definition Each tree node has a value. Value in any node is the minimum value in the subtree for which that node is the root. Equivalently, no descendent has a smaller value.

  28. Min Tree Example 2 4 9 3 Root has minimum element. 4 8 7 9 9

  29. Max Tree Example 9 4 9 8 Root has maximum element. 4 2 7 3 1
