Faster algorithms for shortest paths have been designed, which incorporate structures of the given graphs into complexity analysis. The structural properties are based on the acyclicity of the given graph. More structural properties will be investigated in this project.

Data Structures

• New data structures, called 2-3 heaps and trinomial heaps, have been designed in this project. Experiments show that these are more efficient than existing ones, such as Fibonacci heaps and relaxed heaps. In this project, there will be more discoveries in the area of dictionaries.

Combinatorial generation is to generate combinatorial objects systematically one by one with a minimum amount of effort. Combinatorial objects such as permutations are as old as human history. In ancient times, diplomats were worrying about how to sit dignitaries around the dinner table in a different way each time. The following is a systematic way to generate well formed parenthesis strings by swapping a pair of parenthesis each time.

The maximum sub array problem is to find a rectangular position whose sum is maximum in a given two dimensional array. Two typical areas of application are graphics and data mining. In graphics, the maximum sub array corresponds to the brightest spot in the given graphic image. In data mining, the maximum sub array corresponds to the most promising customer range found in the given relational database.
