  2. Heap (data structure) - Wikipedia

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

    In a min heap, the key of P is less than or equal to the key of C. [1] The node at the "top" of the heap (with no parents) is called the root node. The heap is one maximally efficient implementation of an abstract data type called a priority queue, and in fact, priority queues are often referred to as "heaps", regardless of how they may be ...

  3. Binary heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_heap

    Heap property: the key stored in each node is either greater than or equal to (≥) or less than or equal to (≤) the keys in the node's children, according to some total order. Heaps where the parent key is greater than or equal to (≥) the child keys are called max-heaps; those where it is less than or equal to (≤) are called min-heaps.

    A spoil tip (also called a boney pile, [1] culm bank, gob pile, waste tip [2] or bing) [3] is a pile built of accumulated spoil – waste material removed during mining. [4] Spoil tips are not formed of slag, but in some areas, such as England and Wales, they are referred to as slag heaps. In Scotland the word bing is used.

    Heap files are lists of unordered records of variable size. Although sharing a similar name, heap files are widely different from in-memory heaps. In-memory heaps are ordered, as opposed to heap files. Simplest and most basic method insert efficient, with new records added at the end of the file, providing chronological order

  9. Fibonacci heap - Wikipedia

    A Fibonacci heap is thus better than a binary or binomial heap when is smaller than by a non-constant factor. It is also possible to merge two Fibonacci heaps in constant amortized time, improving on the logarithmic merge time of a binomial heap, and improving on binary heaps which cannot handle merges efficiently.
