Abstract

Abstract — We study the problem of coloring permutations graphs using some properties of the Lattice representation of a permutation and the relationship between permutations and binary search trees. We propose an efficient parallel algorithm which colors a permutation graph in O (log 2 n) time using O (n 2 /logn) processors on the CREW PRAM model, where n is the number of vertices in the permutation graph. Specifically, given a permutation π we construct a tree T ∗ [π], which we call coloring-permutation tree , using certain combinatorial properties of π. We show that the problem of coloring a permutation graph is equivalent to finding vertex levels in the coloring-permutation tree. Our results improve in performance upon the best-known parallel algorithms for the same problem.
