| Research Abstract |
In these two years of this joint reseatch, we could invite Professor Kmeda (twice) and Professor Pilarski from Canada, and Professor karzanov from Russia, and could send Professor Ibaraki (three times), Dr. Nagamochi and Dr.Ohnishi to Canada. The following is a list of the main results of this study on "Distributed algorithms for database management, control and recovery.
1. Study of coteries as a mutual exclusion mechanism of distributes systems. First, it was pointed out that mathematical properties of coteries can be lucidly described by using the concept of Boolean functions, particularly by the concept of dual minority and self-duality. Based on this, structure of an optimal coterie in the sense of maximizing the availability was clarified for the ring and related newtworks. An efficient algorithm to compute such coteries was also proposed.
2. Study on the concurrency control of database systems. For the cautious scheduler, which had been proposed by our group, an new algorithm was proposed to improve its concurrency. Its mathematical properties were also discussed.
3. Study on the connectivity of graph and networks. When distributed systems are represented at networks, its connectivity (i.e., minimum cut) is an important measure of its capacity and reliability. We proposed a new algorithm, which is different from the existing ones in the sense of not relying on the maximum flow algorithms, and proved that it is faster than any known algorithm.
4. Study on nonlinear optimization. The problem of optimal distributed systems becomes that of nonlinear optimization if we take into account the nonlinearity of system components. For this purpose, we study nonlinear optimization algorithms, and proposed in this period a new descent algorithm for the problem of variational inequalities, which is a generalization of a nonlinear optimization problem.
