Analysis, Benefits and Drawbacks

Analysis:

We implemented the Graph Reduction algorithm on adjacency matrices, with some minor optimizations:
By counting the number of remaining processes, and comparing it to the number of processes eliminated so far, we can detect when the algorithm has failed a single time, after which it'll fail forever.

Benefits:

The graph reduction algorithm is very elegant, but also easy to optimize
"Deleting" a node from an adjacency matrix can be performed by zeroing its respective row and column and re-running the algorithm, which is very simple!

Drawbacks:

The adjacency matrix representation is used without interpretation, making the output somewhat hard to read
Our implementation of knot detection didn't pan out.
