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 ...
In computer science, a queap is a priority queue data structure. The data structure allows insertions and deletions of arbitrary elements, as well as retrieval of the highest-priority element. Each deletion takes amortized time logarithmic in the number of items that have been in the structure for a longer time than the removed item. Insertions ...
In computer science, a monotone priority queue is a variant of the priority queue abstract data type in which the priorities of extracted items are required to form a monotonic sequence. That is, for a priority queue in which each successively extracted item is the one with the minimum priority (a min-heap), the minimum priority should be ...
In computer science, a strict Fibonacci heap is a priority queue data structure with low worst case time bounds. It matches the amortized time bounds of the Fibonacci heap in the worst case. To achieve these time bounds, strict Fibonacci heaps maintain several invariants by performing restoring transformations after every operation.
Double-ended priority queues can be built from balanced binary search trees (where the minimum and maximum elements are the leftmost and rightmost leaves, respectively), or using specialized data structures like min-max heap and pairing heap. Generic methods of arriving at double-ended priority queues from normal priority queues are: [5]
A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.
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.
A variation of the quantized bucket queue data structure, the calendar queue, has been applied to scheduling of discrete-event simulations, where the elements in the queue are future events prioritized by the time within the simulation that the events should happen. In this application, the ordering of events is critical, so the priorities ...
