We investigate several straight-line drawing problems for bounded-degree trees in the integer grid without edge crossings under various types of drawings: (1) upward drawings whose edges are drawn as vertically monotone chains, a sequence of line segments, from a parent to its children, (2) order-preserving drawings which preserve the left-to-right order of the children of each vertex, and (3) orthogonal straight-line drawings in which each edge is represented as a single vertical or horizontal segment.
Main contribution of this paper is a unified framework to reduce the upper bound on area for the straight-line drawing problems from O(nlogn) (Crescenzi et al., 1992) to O(nloglogn). This is the first solution of an open problem stated by Garg et al. (1993). We also show that any binary tree admits a small area drawing satisfying any given aspect ratio in the orthogonal straight-line drawing type.
Our results are briefly summarized as follows. Let T be a bounded-degree tree with n vertices. Firstly, we show that T admits an upward straight-line drawing with area O(nloglogn). If T is binary, we can obtain an O(nloglogn)-area upward orthogonal drawing in which each edge is drawn as a chain of at most two orthogonal segments and which has O(n/logn) bends in total. Secondly, we present O(nloglogn)-area (respectively, -volume) orthogonal straight-line drawing algorithms for binary trees with arbitrary aspect ratios in 2-dimension (respectively, 3-dimension). Finally, we present some experimental results which shows the area requirements, in practice, for (order-preserving) upward drawing are much smaller than theoretical bounds obtained through analysis. 相似文献
Possible methods to minimize the toxic effects of SOx and NOx on the growth of a highly CO2 tolerant and fast-growing microalga, Chlorella sp. KR-1, were investigated. Maintaining the pH of the culturing media at an adequate value was quite important to enhancing
the tolerances of the microalgae to SOx and NOx. Controlling the pH by adding an alkaline solution, using a low flow rate of gas fed to the culture, and using a high concentration
of inoculating cells were effective methods to maintaining the proper pH of the culture. Controlling the pH was the most effective
method but could be applied only for some specific microalgae. 相似文献
The title compound, dibromobis[tris(dimethylamino)phosphine oxide]cobalt(II), [CoBr2(C6H18N3OP)2], displays tetrahedral coordination about cobalt. The molecule has twofold crystallographic site symmetry. The short P—N bonds and the planarity of the dimethylamino groups indicate the importance of dπ–pπ interactions. One of the NMe2 groups has an irregular conformation about the P—N bond and deviates from planarity. It is ascribed to the steric hindrance induced by coordination at the O atom of hexamethylphosphoric triamide. 相似文献
In this paper, the isotropic and anisotropic photoelastic experimental hybrid methods for fracture mechanics are developed.
Using the photoelastic experimental hybrid method, it is demonstrated that one can precisely obtain stress intensity factors
and separate the stress components of isotropic and anisotropic plate problems from the only isochromatics. 相似文献
Spinel iron oxide (Fe3O4-γ-Fe2O3) particles were supported on microbeads of silica gel by the calcination of the silica gel base adsorbing citric acid and Fe3+ ions. The X-ray diffraction patterns and the57Fe Mössbauer spectra measured for the spinel iron oxide indicated that the particle size of the oxide was regulated by the mean pore diameter (4–82 nm) of the silica gel support employed. In the case of α-Fe2O3 particles prepared by using the same silica gel beads, it was revealed by the Mössbauer spectra and the electron micrographs that there were relatively large particles of the oxide on the surface of the beads, in addition to the particles in the silica gel micropores. 相似文献
