The goal of a map coloring problem is to color a map so that The goal of a map coloring problem is to color a map so that regions sharing a common border have different colors. (Regions that meet only in a point may share a common color. )

Resolving Conflict via Coloring n Chromatic Number The chromatic number is the minimum number Resolving Conflict via Coloring n Chromatic Number The chromatic number is the minimum number of colors necessary to color a map so that regions sharing a common border have different colors

Resolving Conflict via Coloring n Chromatic Number For example, the chromatic number for the Resolving Conflict via Coloring n Chromatic Number For example, the chromatic number for the map above is 3 since it takes at least 3 colors to color the map so that regions sharing a common border have different colors. Why can't it be done with 2 colors?

Resolving Conflict via Coloring A map coloring problem can be solved by first converting Resolving Conflict via Coloring A map coloring problem can be solved by first converting the map into a graph where each region is a vertex and an edge connects two vertices if and only if the corresponding regions share a border.

Resolving Conflict via Coloring Once a map is converted into a graph, a process Resolving Conflict via Coloring Once a map is converted into a graph, a process called vertex coloring can be used to decide how the map should be colored.

Resolving Conflict via Coloring For example, using the original graph above, we convert each Resolving Conflict via Coloring For example, using the original graph above, we convert each country to a vertex. (We'll use open circles instead of filled dots to make it easier to color them later. )

Resolving Conflict via Coloring §Now we add the edges. Two countries are connected by Resolving Conflict via Coloring §Now we add the edges. Two countries are connected by an edge if and only if they have a common border (but not if they just meet at a point). This gives:

Resolving Conflict via Coloring To Resolving Conflict via Coloring To "color" a graph, we follow the following vertex coloring rules: Vertex coloring rules • Vertices connected by an edge must be different colors. • Use the fewest possible number of colors.

Resolving Conflict via Coloring Continuing the example, one way of doing the vertex coloring Resolving Conflict via Coloring Continuing the example, one way of doing the vertex coloring (that happens to correspond to the colors used in the second map above) is:

Resolving Conflict via Coloring This same idea can be used to solve other problems. Resolving Conflict via Coloring This same idea can be used to solve other problems. Example: n those in which people or things must be grouped or organized based on conflicts among the people or things.

Resolving Conflict via Coloring n In such a situation, the people (or things) are Resolving Conflict via Coloring n In such a situation, the people (or things) are represented by vertices and conflicts between two people (or things) are represented by a connecting edge.

Bin Packing n The problem of finding the minimum number of bins (containers) into Bin Packing n The problem of finding the minimum number of bins (containers) into which the weight (object) can be packed. n Once again, there is no fast or optimal algorithm, so we will look at several methods and compare them. 28

Bin Packing n Six Methods Next Fit (NF) Next Fit Decreasing (NFD) First Fit Bin Packing n Six Methods Next Fit (NF) Next Fit Decreasing (NFD) First Fit (FF) First Fit Decreasing (FFD) Worse Fit (WF) Worse Fit Decreasing (WFD) 29

Bin Packing n Next Fit (NF) – A new bin is opened if the Bin Packing n Next Fit (NF) – A new bin is opened if the weight to be packed next will not fit in the bin that is currently being filled; the current bin is then closed. n First Fit (FF) – The next weight to be packed is placed in the lowestnumbered bin already opened into which it will fit. If it does not fit in any open bins, a new bin is opened. 30

Bin Packing n n Worse Fit (WF) – The next weight to be packed Bin Packing n n Worse Fit (WF) – The next weight to be packed is placed into the open bin with the largest amount of room remaining. If it does not fit in any bins, open a new bin. Decreasing-Time (NFD, FFD, WFD) – list the weights in order of decreasing size before the bin-packing method. Does NOT guarantee optimal solution. 31

Bin Packing n Next Fit (NF) n Advantages – Does not require knowledge of Bin Packing n Next Fit (NF) n Advantages – Does not require knowledge of all the weights in advance; only need to know the remaining space in the bin. n Disadvantages – The bin packed early on may have had room for small items that come later in the list. n Best method for assembly-line packing. 32

Bin Packing n First Fit (FF) n Advantages – Does not require knowledge of Bin Packing n First Fit (FF) n Advantages – Does not require knowledge of all the weights in advance. n Disadvantages – Large number of bins will cause issues, large amount of computer storage n Best method for small amount of items to be packed. 33
