Execution timeThis figure shows the execution time as a function of the number of particles and compares it with other algorithms. It has been obtained on a 3.4 GHz Pentium® IV processor.
Algorithm complexitySISCone's complexity is dominated by the search for stable cones. If N is the number of particles in the event and n the number of particles in a cone, the complexity goes like N n log(n) dominated by the ordering of the O(n) points in the vicinity of each particle. Note: for the version of SISCone with progressive-removal, the stable-sone search has to be repeated O(N/n) times, yielding a O(N2log(n)) complexity. |
