Given a set $P$ of coloured points on the real line, we study the problem of answering range $\alpha$-majority (or "heavy hitter") queries on $P$. More specifically, for a query range $Q$, we want to return each colour that is assigned to…

We investigate the limits of one of the fundamental ideas in data structures: fractional cascading. This is an important data structure technique to speed up repeated searches for the same key in multiple lists and it has numerous…

Living in the Information Age allows almost everyone have access to a large amount of information and options to choose from in order to fulfill their needs. In many cases, the amount of information available and the rate of change may hide…

In this paper, we construct a data structure to efficiently compute the longest increasing subsequence of a sequence subject to dynamic updates. Our data structure supports a query for the longest increasing subsequence in $O(r+\log n)$…

Inspired by the classical fractional cascading technique, we introduce new techniques to speed up the following type of iterated search in 3D: The input is a graph $\mathbf{G}$ with bounded degree together with a set $H_v$ of 3D hyperplanes…

We study the point location problem on dynamic planar subdivisions that allows insertions and deletions of edges. In our problem, the underlying graph of a subdivision is not necessarily connected. We present a data structure of linear size…

The $B^{\epsilon}$-tree [Brodal and Fagerberg 2003] is a simple I/O-efficient external-memory-model data structure that supports updates orders of magnitude faster than B-tree with a query performance comparable to the B-tree: for any…

We present efficient data structures for submatrix maximum queries in Monge matrices and Monge partial matrices. For $n\times n$ Monge matrices, we give a data structure that requires O(n) space and answers submatrix maximum queries in…

A priority queue is a fundamental data structure that maintains a dynamic set of (key, priority)-pairs and supports Insert, Delete, ExtractMin and DecreaseKey operations. In the external memory model, the current best priority queue…

Object-based parallel file systems have emerged as promising storage solutions for high-performance computing (HPC) systems. Despite the fact that object storage provides a flexible interface, scheduling highly concurrent I/O requests that…

We study dynamic planar point location in the External Memory Model or Disk Access Model (DAM). Previous work in this model achieves polylog query and polylog amortized update time. We present a data structure with $O( \log_B^2 N)$ query…

We give a simplified and improved lower bound for the simplex range reporting problem. We show that given a set $P$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, any data structure that uses $S(n)$ space to answer such queries must have…

While operations {\em rank} and {\em select} on static bitvectors can be supported in constant time, lower bounds show that supporting updates raises the cost per operation to $\Theta(\log n/ \log\log n)$ on bitvectors holding $n$ bits.…

A classic data structure problem is to preprocess a string T of length $n$ so that, given a query $q$, we can quickly find all substrings of T with Hamming distance at most $k$ from the query string. Variants of this problem have seen…

Skyline queries typically search a Pareto-optimal set from a given data set to solve the corresponding multiobjective optimization problem. As the number of criteria increases, the skyline presumes excessive data items, which yield a…

Let S be a finite, ordered alphabet, and let x = x_1 x_2 ... x_n be a string over S. A "secondary index" for x answers alphabet range queries of the form: Given a range [a_l,a_r] over S, return the set I_{[a_l;a_r]} = {i |x_i \in [a_l;…

We present a data-structure for orthogonal range searching for random points in the plane. The new data-structure uses (in expectation) $O\bigl(n \log n ( \log \log n)^2 \bigr)$ space, and answers emptiness queries in constant time. As a…

Given a set of n disjoint balls b1, . . ., bn in IRd, we provide a data structure, of near linear size, that can answer (1 \pm \epsilon)-approximate kth-nearest neighbor queries in O(log n + 1/\epsilon^d) time, where k and \epsilon are…

We consider the problem of reporting convex hull points in an orthogonal range query in two dimensions. Formally, let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. A point lies on the convex hull of a point set $S$ if it lies on the…

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…
