Abstract

We present first algorithmic ideas for a practical and lightweight adaption of the DCX suffix array construction algorithm [Sanders et al., 2003] to the distributed-memory setting. Our approach relies on a bucketing technique which enables a lightweight implementation which uses less than half of the memory required by the currently fastest distributed-memory suffix array algorithm PSAC [Flick and Aluru, 2015] while being competitive or even faster in terms of running time.
