Optimal Shortcuts for Balanced Search Trees - A Technical Report
نویسنده
چکیده
We present an alternative to tree rebalancing for improving the expected search cost in weighted binary search trees. This alternative is based on the insertion of shortcut links between nodes in the search tree. We propose several shortcut models and give polynomial time algorithms to find the best shortcuts for two of these models.

Optimal Self-healing of Smart Distribution Grids Based on Spanning Trees to Improve System Reliability
In this paper, a self-healing approach for smart distribution network is presented based on Graph theory and cut sets. In the proposed Graph theory based approach, the upstream grid and all the existing microgrids are modeled as a common node after fault occurrence. Thereafter, the maneuvering lines which are in the cut sets are selected as the recovery path for alternatives networks by making ...
متن کاملFinger Search on Balanced Search Trees
This thesis introduces the concept of a heterogeneous decomposition of a balanced search tree and apply it to the following problems: • How can finger search be implemented without changing the representation of a Red-Black Tree, such as introducing extra storage to the nodes? (Answer: Any degree-balanced search tree can support finger search without modification in its representation by mainta...

متن کاملTransactional Interference-less Balanced Tree Technical Report
In this paper, we present TxCF-Tree, a balanced tree whose design is optimized to support transactional accesses. The core optimizations of TxCF-Tree’s operations are: providing a traversal phase that does not use any lock and/or speculation, and deferring the lock acquisition or physical modification to the transaction’s commit phase; isolating the structural operations (such as re-balancing) ...
متن کاملRandom hyperplane search trees in high dimensions
Given a set S of n ≥ d points in general position in Rd, a random hyperplane split is obtained by sampling d points uniformly at random without replacement from S and splitting based on their affine hull. A random hyperplane search tree is a binary space partition tree obtained by recursive application of random hyperplane splits. We investigate the structural distributions of such random trees...
