The goal of the Cuthill-Mckee (and reverse Cuthill-Mckee) ordering
algorithm[<A
HREF="bibliography.html#george81:__sparse_pos_def">14</A>, <A
HREF="bibliography.html#cuthill69:reducing_bandwith">43</A>, <a
href="bibliography.html#liu75:anal_cm_rcm">44</a>, <a
href="bibliography.html#george71:fem">45</a> ] is to reduce the <a
href="./bandwidth.html">bandwidth</a> of a graph by reordering the
indices assigned to each vertex. The Cuthill-Mckee 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 degree.
<p>
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. For versions 2 and 3, <tt>find_starting_vertex</tt> will be called
for each component in the graph, increasing run time significantly.
</p>
<p>
The output of the algorithm are the vertices in the new ordering.
Depending on what kind of output iterator you use, you can get either
the Cuthill-Mckee ordering or the reverse Cuthill-McKee ordering. For
example, if you store the output into a vector using the vector's
reverse iterator, then you get the reverse Cuthill-McKee ordering.
</p>
<pre>
std::vector&lt;vertex_descriptor&gt; inv_perm(num_vertices(G));
cuthill_mckee_ordering(G, inv_perm.rbegin(), ...);
</pre>
<p>
Either way, storing the output into a vector gives you the
permutation from the new ordering to the old ordering.
</p>
<pre>
inv_perm[new_index[u]] == u
</pre>
<p>
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.
</p>
<pre>
for (size_type i = 0; i != inv_perm.size(); ++i)
perm[old_index[inv_perm[i]]] = i;
</pre>
