Query: Parallel In-Place Algorithms: Theory and Practice   Many parallel algorithms use at least linear auxiliary space in the size of
the input to enable computations to be done independently without conflicts.
Unfortunately, this extra space can be prohibitive for memory-limited machines,
preventing large inputs from being processed. Therefore, it is desirable to
design parallel in-place algorithms that use sublinear (or even
polylogarithmic) auxiliary space.
  In this paper, we bridge the gap between theory and practice for parallel
in-place (PIP) algorithms. We first define two computational models based on
fork-join parallelism, which reflect modern parallel programming environments.
We then introduce a variety of new parallel in-place algorithms that are simple
and efficient, both in theory and in practice. Our algorithmic highlight is the
Decomposable Property introduced in this paper, which enables existing
non-in-place but highly-optimized parallel algorithms to be converted into
parallel in-place algorithms. Using this property, we obtain algorithms for
random permutation, list contraction, tree contraction, and merging that take
linear work, $O(n^{1-\epsilon})$ auxiliary space, and
$O(n^\epsilon\cdot\text{polylog}(n))$ span for $0<\epsilon<1$. We also present
new parallel in-place algorithms for scan, filter, merge, connectivity,
biconnectivity, and minimum spanning forest using other techniques.
  In addition to theoretical results, we present experimental results for
implementations of many of our parallel in-place algorithms. We show that on a
72-core machine with two-way hyper-threading, the parallel in-place algorithms
usually outperform existing parallel algorithms for the same problems that use
linear auxiliary space, indicating that the theory developed in this paper
indeed leads to practical benefits in terms of both space usage and running
time.
