This paper details a data structure for managing and scheduling requests for computing resources of clusters and virtualised infrastructure such as private clouds. The data structure uses a red-black tree whose nodes represent the start…

The original description of the k-d tree recognized that rebalancing techniques, used for building an AVL or red-black tree, are not applicable to a k-d tree, because these techniques involve cyclic exchange of tree nodes that violates the…

A tree-packing is a collection of spanning trees of a graph. It has been a useful tool for computing the minimum cut in static, dynamic, and distributed settings. In particular, [Thorup, Comb. 2007] used them to obtain his dynamic min-cut…

An optimal binary search tree for an access sequence on elements is a static tree that minimizes the total search cost. Constructing perfectly optimal binary search trees is expensive so the most efficient algorithms construct almost…

In this paper we present novel algorithmic techniques with a O(H(N)+N/H(N)) time complexity for performing several types of queries and updates on general rooted trees, binary search trees and lists of size N. For rooted trees we introduce…

We present a data structure that for a dynamic graph $G$ that is updated by edge insertions and deletions, maintains a tree decomposition of $G$ of width at most $6k+5$ under the promise that the treewidth of $G$ never grows above $k$. The…

Searching spatial data is an important operation for scientific simulations which are performed mostly with periodic boundary conditions. An R-Tree is a well known tree data structure used to contain spatial objects and it is capable of…

As data volumes continue to grow rapidly, traditional search algorithms, like the red-black tree and B+ Tree, face increasing challenges in performance, especially in big data scenarios with intensive storage access. This paper presents the…

In this paper we propose a dynamic data structure that supports efficient algorithms for updating and querying singly connected Bayesian networks (causal trees and polytrees). In the conventional algorithms, new evidence in absorbed in time…

In this paper we study the question of whether or not a static search tree should ever be unbalanced. We present several methods to restructure an unbalanced k-ary search tree $T$ into a new tree $R$ that preserves many of the properties of…

Tree data structures, such as red-black trees, quad trees, treaps, or tries, are fundamental tools in computer science. A classical problem in concurrency is to obtain expressive, efficient, and scalable versions of practical tree data…

Self-adjusting data structures are a classic approach to adapting the complexity of operations to the data access distribution. While several self-adjusting variants are known for both binary search trees and B-Trees, existing constructions…

We develop the first fully dynamic algorithm that maintains a decision tree over an arbitrary sequence of insertions and deletions of labeled examples. Given $\epsilon > 0$ our algorithm guarantees that, at every point in time, every node…

We suggest a new non-recursive algorithm for constructing a binary search tree given an array of numbers. The algorithm has $O(N)$ time and $O(1)$ memory complexity if the given array of $N$ numbers is sorted. The resulting tree is of…

Survival analysis studies and predicts the time of death, or other singular unrepeated events, based on historical data, while the true time of death for some instances is unknown. Survival trees enable the discovery of complex nonlinear…

We study two fundamental decremental dynamic graph problems. In both problems, we need to maintain a vertex-weighted forest of size $n$ under edge deletions, weight updates, and a certain information-retrieval query. Both problems can be…

B-slack trees, a subclass of B-trees that have substantially better worst-case space complexity, are introduced. They store $n$ keys in height $O(\log_b n)$, where $b$ is the maximum node degree. Updates can be performed in $O(\log_{\frac b…

Decision trees, owing to their interpretability, are attractive as control policies for (dynamical) systems. Unfortunately, constructing, or synthesising, such policies is a challenging task. Previous approaches do so by imitating a…

We examine a discrete random recursive tree growth process that, at each time step, either adds or deletes a node from the tree with probability $p$ and $1-p$, respectively. Node addition follows the usual uniform attachment model. For node…

The B-tree is a fundamental secondary index structure that is widely used for answering one-dimensional range reporting queries. Given a set of $N$ keys, a range query can be answered in $O(\log_B \nm + \frac{K}{B})$ I/Os, where $B$ is the…
