  2. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    C++ reference for std::priority_queue; Descriptions by Lee Killough; libpqueue is a generic priority queue (heap) implementation (in C) used by the Apache HTTP Server project. Survey of known priority queue structures by Stefan Xenos; UC Berkeley - Computer Science 61B - Lecture 24: Priority Queues (video) - introduction to priority queues ...

  3. Min-max heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min-max_heap

    This makes the min-max heap a very useful data structure to implement a double-ended priority queue. Like binary min-heaps and max-heaps, min-max heaps support logarithmic insertion and deletion and can be built in linear time. [3] Min-max heaps are often represented implicitly in an array; [4] hence it's referred to as an implicit data structure.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Dijkstra's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra's_algorithm

    A min-priority queue is an abstract data type that provides 3 basic operations: add_with_priority(), decrease_priority() and extract_min(). As mentioned earlier, using such a data structure can lead to faster computing times than using a basic queue.

  6. 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.

  7. Van Emde Boas tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_Emde_Boas_tree

    A van Emde Boas tree (Dutch pronunciation: [vɑn ˈɛmdə ˈboːɑs]), also known as a vEB tree or van Emde Boas priority queue, is a tree data structure which implements an associative array with m-bit integer keys. It was invented by a team led by Dutch computer scientist Peter van Emde Boas in 1975. [1]

  8. d-ary heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-ary_heap

    The d-ary heap consists of an array of n items, each of which has a priority associated with it. These items may be viewed as the nodes in a complete d-ary tree, listed in breadth first traversal order: the item at position 0 of the array (using zero-based numbering) forms the root of the tree, the items at positions 1 through d are its children, the next d 2 items are its grandchildren, etc.

  9. Leftist tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leftist_tree

    In computer science, a leftist tree or leftist heap is a priority queue implemented with a variant of a binary heap. Every node x has an s-value which is the distance to the nearest leaf in subtree rooted at x. [1] In contrast to a binary heap, a leftist tree attempts to be very unbalanced.
