RESUMO

This work main objective was to study and to detail a PRAM parallel algorithm to compute topological ordering of a planar acyclic digraph, proposed by Kao and Klein. It is not trivial to obtain a topological ordering of general acyclic digraphs. Kao and Klein showed that this ordering can only be achieved computing the digraph transitive closure. Concerning to planar acyclic digraphs, Kao and Klein proposed a PRAM parallel algorithm for computing topological ordering without computing the digraph transitive closure. However this algorithm uses a sort of data structures and definitions from Graph Theory, beyond other algorithms for solving some graph related key problems. Among these algorithms, we focused on a PRAM parallel algorithm for obtaining spanning trees in strongly connected digraphs. This algorithm was proposed by Kao and Shannon and is named CD-PAIR algorithm. Kao and Klein showed that, based on this algorithm result, it is possible to obtain an ear decomposition of planar acyclic digraphs and, further achieve a topological ordering. This relation between spanning trees and ear decomposition is the most important concept for the total comprehension of the Kao and Klein s topological ordering algorithm widely discussed on this work.
