\def\title{GB\_\,MILES}

\prerequisites{GB\_\,GRAPH}{GB\_\,IO}
@* Introduction. This GraphBase module contains the |miles| subroutine,
which creates a family of undirected graphs based on highway mileage data
between North American cities. Examples of the use of this procedure can be
found in the demo programs {\sc MILES\_\,SPAN} and {\sc GB\_\,PLANE}.

@(gb_miles.h@>=
extern Graph *miles();

@ The subroutine call {\advance\thinmuskip 0mu plus 4mu
|miles(n,north_weight,west_weight,pop_weight,max_distance,max_degree,seed)|}
constructs a graph based on the information in \.{miles.dat}.
Each vertex of the graph corresponds to one of the 128 cities whose
name is alphabetically greater than or equal to `Ravenna, Ohio' in
the 1949 edition of Rand McNally {\char`\&} Company's {\sl Standard Highway
Mileage Guide}. Edges between vertices are assigned lengths representing
distances between cities, in miles. In most cases these mileages come
from the Rand McNally Guide, but several dozen entries needed to be changed
drastically because they were obviously too large or too small; in such cases
an educated guess was made. Furthermore, about 5\% of the entries were
adjusted slightly in order to
ensure that all distances satisfy the ``triangle inequality'': The
graph generated by |miles| has the property that the
distance from |u| to~|v| plus the distance from |v| to~|w| always exceeds
or equals the distance from |u| to~|w|.

The constructed graph will have $\min(n,128)$ vertices; the default value
|n=128| is substituted if |n=0|. If |n| is less
than 128, the |n| cities will be selected by assigning a weight to
each city and choosing the |n| with largest weight, using random
numbers to break ties in case of equal weights. Weights are computed
by the formula
$$ |north_weight|\cdot|lat|+|west_weight|\cdot|lon|+|pop_weight|\cdot|pop|, $$
where |lat| is latitude north of the equator, |lon| is longitude
west of Greenwich, and |pop| is the population in 1980. Both |lat| and |lon|
are given in ``centidegrees'' (hundredths of degrees). For example,
San Francisco has |lat=3778|, |lon=12242|, and |pop=678974|;
this means that, before the recent earthquake, it was located at
$37.78^\circ$ north latitude and $122.42^\circ$ west longitude, and that it had
678,974 residents in the 1980 census. The weight parameters must satisfy
$$ \vert|north_weight|\vert\le100{,}000,\quad
   \vert|west_weight|\vert\le100{,}000,\quad
   \vert|pop_weight|\vert\le100.$$

The constructed graph will be ``complete''---that is, it will have
edges between every pair of vertices---unless special values are given to
the parameters
|max_distance| or |max_degree|. If |max_distance!=0|, edges with more
than |max_distance| miles will not appear; if |max_degree!=0|, each
vertex will be limited to at most |max_degree| of its shortest edges.

Vertices of the graph will appear in order of decreasing weight.
The |seed| parameter defines the pseudo-random numbers used wherever
a ``random'' choice between equal-weight vertices or equal-length edges
needs to be made.

@d MAX_N 128

@(gb_miles.h@>=
#define MAX_N 128 /* maximum and default number of cities */

@ Examples: The call |miles(100,0,0,1,0,0,0)| will construct a
complete graph on 100 vertices, representing the 100 most populous
cities in the database.  It turns out that San Diego, with a
population of 875,538, is the winning city by this criterion, followed
by San Antonio (population 786,023), San Francisco (678,974), and
Washington D.C. (638,432).

To get |n| cities in the western United States and Canada, you can say
$|miles|(n,0,1,0,\ldots\,)$; to get |n| cities in the Northeast, use a
call like $|miles|(n,1,-1,0,\ldots\,)$. A parameter setting like
$(50,-500,0,1,\ldots\,)$ produces mostly Southern cities, except for a
few large metropolises in the north.

If you ask for |miles(n,a,b,c,0,1,0)|, you get an edge between cities if
and only if each city is the nearest to the other, among the |n| cities
selected. (The graph is always undirected: There is an arc from |u| to~|v|
if and only if there's an arc of the same length from |v| to~|u|.)

A random selection of cities can be obtained by calling
|miles(n,0,0,0,m,d,s)|.  Different choices of the seed number |s| will
produce different selections, in a system-independent manner;
identical results will be obtained on all computers when identical
parameters have been specified.  Equivalent experiments on algorithms
for graph manipulation can therefore be performed by researchers in
different parts of the world. Any value of |s| between 0 and
$2^{31}-1$ is permissible.

@ If the |miles| routine encounters a problem, it returns |NULL|
(\.{NULL}), after putting a code number into the external variable
|panic_code|. This code number identifies the type of failure.
Otherwise |miles| returns a pointer to the newly created graph, which
will be represented with the data structures explained in {\sc GB\_\,GRAPH}.
(The external variable |panic_code| is itself defined in {\sc GB\_\,GRAPH}.)

@* Vertices.  As we read in the data, we construct a list of nodes,
each of which contains a city's name, latitude, longitude, population,
and weight. These nodes conform to the specifications stipulated in
the {\sc GB\_\,SORT} module. After the list has been sorted by weight, the
top |n| entries will be the vertices of the new graph.

@ The data in \.{miles.dat} appears in 128 groups of lines, one for each
city, in reverse alphabetical order. These groups have the general form
$$\vcenter{\halign{\tt#\hfil\cr
City Name, ST[lat,lon]pop\cr
d1 d2 d3 d4 d5 d6 ... (possibly several lines' worth)\cr
}}$$
where \.{City Name} is the name of the city (possibly including spaces);
\.{ST} is the two-letter state code; \.{lat} and \.{lon} are latitude
and longitude in hundredths of degrees; \.{pop} is the population; and
the remaining numbers \.{d1}, \.{d2}, \dots\ are distances to the
previously named cities in reverse order. Each distance is separated
from the previous item by either a blank space or a newline character.
For example, the line
$$\hbox{\tt San Francisco, CA[3778,12242]678974}$$
specifies the data about San Francisco that was mentioned earlier.
From the first few groups
$$\vcenter{\halign{\tt#\hfil\cr

we learn that the distance from Worcester, Massachusetts, to Yakima,
Washington, is 2964 miles; from Worcester to Youngstown it is 604 miles.

@ Once all the nodes have been set up, we can use the |gb_linksort| routine
to sort them into the desired order. This routine, which is part of
the \\{GB\_\,SORT} module, builds 128 lists from which the desired nodes
are readily accessed in decreasing order of weight, using random numbers
to break ties.

We set the population to zero in every city that isn't chosen. Then
that city will be excluded when edges are examined later.

@<Determine the |n| cities to use in the graph@>=
{@+register node *p; /* the current node being considered */
  register Vertex *v=new_graph->vertices; /* the first unfilled vertex */

    for (p=(node*)gb_sorted[j]; p; p=p->link) {
      if (v<new_graph->vertices+n) @<Add city |p->kk| to the graph@>@;
      else p->pop=0; /* this city is not being used */
    }
}

@ Utility fields |x| and |y| for each vertex are set to coordinates that
can be used in geometric computations; these coordinates are obtained by
simple linear transformations of latitude and longitude (not by any
kind of sophisticated polyconic projection). We will have
$$0\le x\le5132, \qquad 0\le y\le 3555.$$
Utility field~|z| is set to the city's index number (0 to 127) in the
original database. Utility field~|w| is set to the city's population.

The coordinates computed here are compatible with those in the \TEX/ file
\.{cities.texmap}. Users might want to incorporate edited copies of that file
into documents that display results obtained with |miles| graphs.

@ Here we reuse the key fields of the nodes, storing complementary distances
there instead of weights. We also let the sorting routine change the
link fields. The other fields, however---especially |pop|---remain
unchanged. Yes, the author knows this is a wee bit tricky, but why~not?

}

@ Random access to the distance matrix is provided to users via
the external function |miles_distance|. Caution: This function can be
used only with the graph most recently made by |miles|, and only when
the graph's |aux_data| has not been recycled, and only when the
|z| utility fields have not been used for another purpose.

The result might be negative when an edge has been suppressed. Moreover,
we can in fact have |miles_distance(u,v)<0| when |miles_distance(v,u)>0|,
if the distance in question was suppressed by the |max_degree| constraint
on~|u| but not on~|v|.

@* Index. As usual, we close with an index that
shows where the identifiers of \\{gb\_miles} are defined and used.
