  5. Heap (data structure) - Wikipedia

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

    A heap is a useful data structure when it is necessary to repeatedly remove the object with the highest (or lowest) priority, or when insertions need to be interspersed with removals of the root node. A common implementation of a heap is the binary heap, in which the tree is a complete [2] binary tree (see figure).

  6. K-D heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-D_Heap

    A K-D heap [1] is a data structure in computer science which implements a multidimensional priority queue without requiring additional space. It is a generalization of the Heap . [ 2 ] It allows for efficient insertion, query of the minimum element, and deletion of the minimum element in any of the k dimensions, and therefore includes the ...

  7. Treap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treap

    Create a new node with value x, such that x is larger than this max-value in the first treap and smaller than the min-value in the second treap, assign it the minimum priority, then set its left child to the first heap and its right child to the second heap. Rotate as necessary to fix the heap order.

    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
