The goal of the King ordering algorithm [62]is to reduce the bandwidth of a graph by reordering the indices assigned to each vertex. The King ordering algorithm works by a local minimization of the i-th bandwidths. The vertices are basically assigned a breadth-first search order, except that at each step, the adjacent vertices are placed in the queue in order of increasing pseudo-degree, where pseudo-degree is defined as the number of outgoing edges with white endpoints (vertices yet to be examined).

Version 1 of the algorithm lets the user choose the ``starting vertex'', version 2 finds a good starting vertex using the pseudo-peripheral pair heuristic (among each component), while version 3 contains the starting nodes for each vertex in the deque. The choice of the ``starting vertex'' can have a significant effect on the quality of the ordering.

The output of the algorithm are the vertices in the new ordering. Storing the output into a vector gives you the permutation from the new ordering to the old ordering.

  inv_perm[new_index[u]] == u

Often times, it is the opposite permutation that you want, the permutation from the old index to the new index. This can easily be computed in the following way.

  for (size_type i = 0; i != inv_perm.size(); ++i)
    perm[old_index[inv_perm[i]]] = i;

Parameters

For version 1:

IncidenceGraph& g (IN)
An undirected graph. The graph's type must be a model of IncidenceGraph.
Python: The parameter is named graph.
vertex_descriptor s (IN)
The starting vertex.
Python: Unsupported parameter.
OutputIterator permutation (OUT)
The new vertex ordering. The vertices are written to the output iterator in their new order.
Python: This parameter is unused in Python. The new vertex ordering is returned as a Python list.
ColorMap color_map (WORK)
Used internally to keep track of the progress of the algorithm (to avoid visiting the same vertex twice).
Python: Unsupported parameter.
DegreeMap degree_map (IN)
This must map vertices to their degree.
Python: Unsupported parameter.

For version 2:

VertexListGraph& g (IN)
An undirected graph. The graph's type must be a model of VertexListGraph.
Python: The name of this parameter is graph.
OutputIterator permutation (OUT)
The new vertex ordering. The vertices are written to the output iterator in their new order.
Python: This parameter is unused in Python. The new vertex ordering is returned as a Python list.
ColorMap color_map (WORK)
Used internally to keep track of the progress of the algorithm (to avoid visiting the same vertex twice).
Python: Unsupported parameter.
DegreeMap degree_map (IN)
This must map vertices to their degree.
Python: Unsupported parameter.

For version 3:

IncidenceGraph& g (IN)
An undirected graph. The graph's type must be a model of IncidenceGraph.
Python: The parameter is named graph.
std::deque< typename graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_descriptor > vertex_queue (IN)
The deque containing the starting vertices for each component.
Python: This parameter is unused in Python. The new vertex ordering is returned as a Python list.
OutputIterator permutation (OUT)
The new vertex ordering. The vertices are written to the output iterator in their new order.
Python: This parameter is unused in Python. The new vertex ordering is returned as a Python list.
ColorMap color_map (WORK)
Used internally to keep track of the progress of the algorithm (to avoid visiting the same vertex twice).
Python: Unsupported parameter.
DegreeMap degree_map (IN)
This must map vertices to their degree.
Python: Unsupported parameter.
