Concurrent Rebalancing on HyperRed-Black Trees
نویسندگان
چکیده
The HyperRed-Black trees are a relaxed version of RedBlack trees accepting high degree of concurrency. In the Red-Black trees consecutive red nodes are forbidden. This restriction has been withdrawn in the Chromatic trees. They have been introduced by O. Nurmi and E. Soisalon-Soininen to work in a concurrent environment. A Chromatic tree can have big clusters of red nodes surrounded by black nodes. Nevertheless, concurrent rebalancing of Chromatic trees into Red-Black trees has a serious drawback: in big cluster of red nodes only the top node can be updated. Direct updating inside the cluster is forbidden. This approach gives us limited degree of concurrency. The HyperRedBlack trees has been designed to solve this problem. It is possible to update red nodes in the inside of a red cluster. In a HyperRed-Black tree nodes can have a multiplicity of colors; they can be red, black or hyper-red.

0 Rank - Balanced Trees
Since the invention of AVL trees in 1962, many kinds of binary search trees have been proposed. Notable are red-black trees, in which bottom-up rebalancing after an insertion or deletion takes O(1) amortized time and O(1) rotations worst-case. But the design space of balanced trees has not been fully explored. We continue the exploration. Our contributions are three. We systematically study the...
متن کاملRelaxed Balanced Red-Black Trees
Relaxed balancing means that, in a dictionary stored as a balanced tree, the necessary rebalancing after updates may be delayed. This is in contrast to strict balancing meaning that rebalancing is performed immediately after the update. Relaxed balancing is important for efficiency in highly dynamic applications where updates can occur in bursts. The rebalancing tasks can be performed gradually...
متن کاملThe Performance of Concurrent Red-Black Tree Algorithms
Relaxed balancing has become a commonly used concept in the design of concurrent search tree algorithms. The idea of relaxed balancing is to uncouple the rebalancing from the updating in order to speed up the update operations and to allow a high degree of concurrency. Many di erent relaxed balancing algorithms have been proposed, especially for red-black trees and AVL trees, but their performa...
متن کاملChromatic Search Trees Revisited Institut F Ur Informatik | Report 91
Relaxed balancing of search trees was introduced with the aim of speeding up the updates and allowing a high degree of concurrency. In a relaxed version of a search tree the rebalancing operations are uncoupled from the updates and may be delayed. Using local transformations the rebalancing can be performed concurrently with updates and search operations. In this paper we revisit the rebalancin...
متن کاملConcurrent Rebalancing of ACL Trees: A Fine-Grained Approach (Extended Abstract)
We address the concurrent rebalancing of almost balanced binary search trees (AVL trees). Such a rebalancing may for instance be necessary after successive insertions and deletions of keys. We show that this problem can be studied through the self-reorganization of distributed systems of nodes controlled by local evolution rules in the line of the approach of Dijkstra and Scholten. This yields ...
