Move-r: Optimizing the r-index

Authors: Nico Bertram, Johannes Fischer, and Lukas Nalbach

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 301, 22nd International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2024)

Abstract

We present a static text index called Move-r, which is a highly optimized version of the r-index ([Travis Gagie et al., 2020] Gagie et al., 2020) that encorporates recent theoretical developments of the move data structure ([Takaaki Nishimoto and Yasuo Tabei, 2021] Nishimoto and Tabei, 2021). The r-index is the method of choice for indexing highly repetitive texts, such as different versions of a text document or DNA from the same species, as it exploits the compressibilty of the underlying data. With Move-r, we can answer count- and locate queries 2-35 (typically 15) times as fast as with any other r-index supporting locate queries while being 0.8-2.5 (typically 2) times as large. A Move-r index can be constructed 0.9-2 (typically 2) times as fast while using 1/3-1 (typically 1/2) times as much space.

Parameterized Algorithms for Coordinated Motion Planning: Minimizing Energy

Authors: Argyrios Deligkas, Eduard Eiben, Robert Ganian, Iyad Kanj, and M. S. Ramanujan

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)

Abstract

We study the parameterized complexity of a generalization of the coordinated motion planning problem on graphs, where the goal is to route a specified subset of a given set of k robots to their destinations with the aim of minimizing the total energy (i.e., the total length traveled). We develop novel techniques to push beyond previously-established results that were restricted to solid grids. We design a fixed-parameter additive approximation algorithm for this problem parameterized by k alone. This result, which is of independent interest, allows us to prove the following two results pertaining to well-studied coordinated motion planning problems: (1) A fixed-parameter algorithm, parameterized by k, for routing a single robot to its destination while avoiding the other robots, which is related to the famous Rush-Hour Puzzle; and (2) a fixed-parameter algorithm, parameterized by k plus the treewidth of the input graph, for the standard Coordinated Motion Planning (CMP) problem in which we need to route all the k robots to their destinations. The latter of these results implies, among others, the fixed-parameter tractability of CMP parameterized by k on graphs of bounded outerplanarity, which include bounded-height subgrids. We complement the above results with a lower bound which rules out the fixed-parameter tractability for CMP when parameterized by the total energy. This contrasts the recently-obtained tractability of the problem on solid grids under the same parameterization. As our final result, we strengthen the aforementioned fixed-parameter tractability to hold not only on solid grids but all graphs of bounded local treewidth - a class including, among others, all graphs of bounded genus.

Interactive Exploration of the Network Behavior of Personal Machines

Authors: Mike Sips, Sascha Simon, and John Gerth

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 9211, Visualization and Monitoring of Network Traffic (2009)

Abstract

Personal machines are often the weakest points within a large network. Although they run an ever-increasing number of network services, these machines are often controlled by users who are unaware of security threats. Thus, a well-informed attacker can, with modest effort, identify and gain control over personal machines. However, system administrators need to know the tools and techniques used for attacks while simultaneously needing to invest huge analytical efforts to detect malicious behavior in the vast volumes of network traffic. In our research project we investigate the idea that an understanding of the regular behavior of personal machines can improve the chance of detecting the point in time when a machine shows malicious behavior. We propose a visual exploration system based on a data abstraction layer and temporal visual representations of the network traffic. The data abstraction layer enables an interactive change in the level of detail of the network traffic while temporal visualizations help system administrators to detect unexpected network traffic. In the next phase of this project, we will conduct experiments to get a good feel about the limits of our system in detecting malicious behavior in real-world scenarios.
