Abstract(in English) | Recently computer networks are widely popularized, where we can easily transfer and duplicate files or data we need. In this situation, large sized files are often compressed in ahead of transfer. The total time from the beginning of compressing a file in some computer (source) till the end of transfering the to other computer (sink) depends on the performances of those computers and the capacity of communication links. If we can compress or decompress files on other computers as well as source and sink, we might transfer files faster than now. On this assumption, a problem of optimal file compression transfer is to choose some computers where we compress and decompress the file in order to transfer these files in the shortest time. Until now, this problem is shown to be reducible to a shortest path problem. Then, by applying familiar shortest path (shortest path tree) algorithm of Dijkstra's to networks with path graph structure, we can solve the problem in polynomical time, but not in linear time. However, if we revise Dijkstra's algorithm, then we can solve the problem for path graph version in linear time, which is shown in this report. |
