Girth and euclidean distortion
Authors: Nathan Linial, Avner Magen, Assaf Naor
Venue: Proceedings of the thiry-fourth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing (2002)

(MATH) In this paper we partially prove a conjecture that was raised by Linial, London and Rabinovich in \cite{llr}. Let $G$ be a $k$-regular graph, $k \ge 3$, with girth $g$. We show that every embedding $f : G \to \ell_2$ has distortion $\Omega (\sqrt{g})$. The original conjecture which remains open is that the Euclidean distortion is bounded below by $\Omega(g)$. Two proofs are given, one based on semi-definite programming, and the other on Markov Type, a concept that considers random walks on metrics.

The complexity of choosing an H-colouring (nearly) uniformly at random
Authors: Leslie Ann Goldberg, Steven Kelk, Mike Paterson
Venue: Proceedings of the thiry-fourth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing (2002)

Cooper, Dyer and Frieze studied the problem of sampling H-colourings (nearly) uniformly at random. Special cases of this problem include sampling colourings and independent sets and sampling from statistical physics models such as the Widom-Rowlinson model, the Beach model, the Potts model and the hard-core lattice gas model. Cooper et al. considered the family of "cautious" ergodic Markov chains with uniform stationary distribution and showed that, for every fixed connected "nontrivial" graph H, every such chain mixes slowly. In this paper, we give a complexity result for the problem. Namely, we show that for any fixed graph H with no trivial components, there is unlikely to be any Polynomial Almost Uniform Sampler (PAUS) for H-colourings. We show that if there were a PAUS for the H-colouring problem, there would also be a PAUS for sampling independent sets in bipartite graphs and, by the self-reducibility of the latter problem, there would be a Fully-Polynomial Randomised Approximation Scheme (FPRAS) for BIS --- the problem of counting independent sets in bipartite graphs. Dyer, Goldberg, Greenhill and Jerrum have shown that BIS is complete in a certain logically-defined complexity class. Thus, a PAUS for sampling H-colourings would give an FPRAS for the entire complexity class. In order to achieve our result we introduce the new notion of sampling-preserving reduction which seems to be more useful in certain settings than approximation-preserving reduction.

Optimized pin assignment for lower routing congestion after floorplanning phase
Authors: Tianpei Zhang, Sachin S. Sapatnekar
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 international workshop on System-level interconnect prediction (2002)

A technique for the early estimation of congestion after the floorplanning phase is proposed in this paper, based on which an optimized pin assignment algorithm is implemented, aiming at reducing the routing congestion. Experiments show that the optimized pin locations will effectively reduce the total routing congestion violations, and the algorithm complexity is reasonable for application to benchmark circuits.

CCured: type-safe retrofitting of legacy code
Authors: George C. Necula, Scott McPeak, Westley Weimer
Venue: Proceedings of the 29th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages (2002)

In this paper we propose a scheme that combines type inference and run-time checking to make existing C programs type safe. We describe the CCured type system, which extends that of C by separating pointer types according to their usage. This type system allows both pointers whose usage can be verified statically to be type safe, and pointers whose safety must be checked at run time. We prove a type soundness result and then we present a surprisingly simple type inference algorithm that is able to infer the appropriate pointer kinds for existing C programs.Our experience with the CCured system shows that the inference is very effective for many C programs, as it is able to infer that most or all of the pointers are statically verifiable to be type safe. The remaining pointers are instrumented with efficient run-time checks to ensure that they are used safely. The resulting performance loss due to run-time checks is 0-150%, which is several times better than comparable approaches that use only dynamic checking. Using CCured we have discovered programming bugs in established C programs such as several SPECINT95 benchmarks.
Design hierarchy guided multilevel circuit partitioning
Authors: Yongseok Cheon, D. F. Wong
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 international symposium on Physical design (2002)

In this paper, we present a new multilevel circuit partitioning algorithm (dhml) which is guided by design hierarchy. In addition to flat netlist hypergraph, we use user design hierarchy as a hint for partitioning because it already has some implications on connectivity information between logical blocks in the design. Using design hierarchy in partitioning is nontrivial since hierarchical elements in design hierarchy does not necessarily have strong internal connectivity, hence we need to determine whether it is preferable to break up or preserve the hierarchical elements. In order to identify and select the hierarchical elements with strong connectivity, Rent exponent is used. Then, the selected hierarchical elements are used as effective clustering scopes during multilevel coarsening phase. The scopes are dynamically updated (enlarged) while building up a clustering tree so that the clustering tree resembles the densely connected portions of the design hierarchy.We tested our algorithm on a set of large industrial designs in which the largest one has 1.8 million cells, 2.8 million nets, and 11 levels of hierarchy. By exploiting design hierarchy, our algorithm produces higher quality partitioning results than the state-of-the-art multilevel partitioner hMetis [7]. Furthermore, experimental results show that dhml yields significantly more stable solutions, which is helpful in practice to reduce the number of runs to obtain the best result.

A multicast-based distributed file system for the internet
Authors: Björn Grönvall, Ian Marsh, Stephen Pink
Venue: Proceedings of the 7th workshop on ACM SIGOPS European workshop: Systems support for worldwide applications (1996)

JetFile is a file system designed with multicast as its distribution mechanism. The goal is to support a large number of clients in an environment such as the Internet where hosts are attached to both high and low speed networks, sometimes over long distances. JetFile is designed for reduced reliance on servers by allowing client-to-client updates using scalable reliable multicast. Clients on high speed networks prefetch large numbers of files. On low speed networks such as wireless, special caching policies are used to decrease file access latency. The prototype implementation of JetFile is on the JetStream gigabit local area network which provides hardware support for many multicast addresses. The multicast Internet backbone (Mbone) is the wide area testbed for JetFile.
