  2. Heap (data structure) - Wikipedia

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

    extract-max (or extract-min): returns the node of maximum value from a max heap [or minimum value from a min heap] after removing it from the heap (a.k.a., pop [5]) delete-max (or delete-min): removing the root node of a max heap (or min heap), respectively; replace: pop root and push a new key. This is more efficient than a pop followed by a ...

  3. Double-ended priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_priority_queue

    An interval heap is like an embedded min-max heap in which each node contains two elements. It is a complete binary tree in which: [6] The left element is less than or equal to the right element. Both the elements define a closed interval. Interval represented by any node except the root is a sub-interval of the parent node.

  4. Tracing garbage collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracing_garbage_collection

    For interoperability with native code, the garbage collector must copy the object contents to a location outside of the garbage collected region of memory. An alternative approach is to pin the object in memory, preventing the garbage collector from moving it and allowing the memory to be directly shared with native pointers (and possibly ...

  5. Garbage collection (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_collection...

    Stop-and-copy garbage collection in a Lisp architecture: [1] Memory is divided into working and free memory; new objects are allocated in the former. When it is full (depicted), garbage collection is performed: All data structures still in use are located by pointer tracing and copied into consecutive locations in free memory.

  6. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    A small phone book as a hash table. In computing, a hash table is a data structure that implements an associative array, also called a dictionary or simply map; an associative array is an abstract data type that maps keys to values. [2]

  7. Binary heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_heap

    The downward-moving node is swapped with the larger of its children in a max-heap (in a min-heap it would be swapped with its smaller child), until it satisfies the heap property in its new position. This functionality is achieved by the Max-Heapify function as defined below in pseudocode for an array -backed heap A of length length ( A ).

  8. Manual memory management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_memory_management

    In computer science, manual memory management refers to the usage of manual instructions by the programmer to identify and deallocate unused objects, or garbage.Up until the mid-1990s, the majority of programming languages used in industry supported manual memory management, though garbage collection has existed since 1959, when it was introduced with Lisp.
