Together with the sealed piggy-bank is sent a coded letter that lists and certifies the contents ...

متن کاملOn Worst-Case Robin Hood Hashing
We consider open addressing hashing and implement it by using the Robin Hood strategy; that is, in case of collision, the element that has traveled the farthest can stay in the slot. We hash ∼ αn elements into a table of size n where each probe is independent and uniformly distributed over the table, and α < 1 is a constant. Let Mn be the maximum search time for any of the elements in the table...
