Description

Parallel-Range-Lite is a parallel suffix array construction algorithm for integer alphabets. It is a lightweight implementation based on the range algorithm from the Problem Based Benchmark Suite PBBS. A rough description of the algorithm can be found in the following work.

Julian Labeit, Julian Shun, and Guy E. Blelloch. Parallel Lightweight Wavelet Tree, Suffix Array and FM-Index Construction. DCC 2015.

Installation

The following steps have been tested on Ubuntu 14.04 with gcc 5.3.0 and cmake 2.8.12.

git clone https://github.com/jlabeit/parallel-range-lite.git
cd parallel-range-lite
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install

Note that in the default version the cilkplus implementation by gcc is used for parallelization. To change this setting edit parallelization settings in the CMakeLists.txt file.

Getting Started

An example application can be found in demo/main.cpp. The library provides two basic functions to build the suffix array over a text.

// 32 bit version.
void parallelrangelite(int32_t* ISA, int32_t* SA, int32_t n);
// 64 bit version.
void parallelrangelite(int64_t* ISA, int64_t* SA, int64_t n);

To use the library include the header parallel-range.h, link against the library libprange.
