  2. Queue (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(abstract_data_type)

    Queues are common in computer programs, where they are implemented as data structures coupled with access routines, as an abstract data structure or in object-oriented languages as classes. A queue has two ends, the top, which is the only position at which the push operation may occur, and the bottom, which is the only position at which the pop ...

  3. Bucket queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_queue

    A bucket queue has the form of an array of buckets: an array data structure, indexed by the priorities, whose cells contain collections of items with the same priority as each other. With this data structure, insertion of elements and changes of their priority take constant time. Searching for and removing the minimum-priority element takes ...

  4. Double-ended priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_priority_queue

    In computer science, a double-ended priority queue (DEPQ) [1] or double-ended heap [2] is a data structure similar to a priority queue or heap, but allows for efficient removal of both the maximum and minimum, according to some ordering on the keys (items) stored in the structure. Every element in a DEPQ has a priority or value.

  5. Double-ended queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_queue

    Double-ended queues can also be implemented as a purely functional data structure. [3]: 115 Two versions of the implementation exist. The first one, called 'real-time deque, is presented below. It allows the queue to be persistent with operations in O(1) worst-case time, but requires lazy lists with memoization. The second one, with no lazy ...

  6. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    While priority queues are often implemented using heaps, they are conceptually distinct from heaps. A priority queue is an abstract data type like a list or a map; just as a list can be implemented with a linked list or with an array, a priority queue can be implemented with a heap or another method such as an ordered array.

  7. Heap (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_(data_structure)

    Priority queue: A priority queue is an abstract concept like "a list" or "a map"; just as a list can be implemented with a linked list or an array, a priority queue can be implemented with a heap or a variety of other methods. K-way merge: A heap data structure is useful to merge many already-sorted input streams into a single sorted output ...

  8. Fibonacci heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_heap

    In computer science, a Fibonacci heap is a data structure for priority queue operations, consisting of a collection of heap-ordered trees.It has a better amortized running time than many other priority queue data structures including the binary heap and binomial heap.

  9. Binomial heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_heap

    Here are time complexities [5] of various heap data structures. The abbreviation am. indicates that the given complexity is amortized, otherwise it is a worst-case complexity. For the meaning of "O(f)" and "Θ(f)" see Big O notation. Names of operations assume a min-heap.
