Cache-Oblivious Implicit Predecessor Dictionaries with the Working Set Property
In this paper we present an implicit dynamic dictionary with the working-set
property, supporting insert(e) and delete(e) in O(log n) time, predecessor(e)
in O(log l_{p(e)}) time, successor(e) in O(log l_{s(e)}) time and search(e) in
O(log min(l_{p(e)},l_{e}, l_{s(e)})) time, where n is the number of elements
stored in the dictionary, l_{e} is the number of distinct elements searched for
since element e was last searched for and p(e) and s(e) are the predecessor and
successor of e, respectively. The time-bounds are all worst-case. The
dictionary stores the elements in an array of size n using no additional space.
In the cache-oblivious model the log is base B and the cache-obliviousness is
due to our black box use of an existing cache-oblivious implicit dictionary.
This is the first implicit dictionary supporting predecessor and successor
searches in the working-set bound. Previous implicit structures required O(log
n) time.Comment: An extended abstract is accepted at STACS 2012, this is the full

Online Sorting via Searching and Selection
In this paper, we present a framework based on a simple data structure and
parameterized algorithms for the problems of finding items in an unsorted list
of linearly ordered items based on their rank (selection) or value (search). As
a side-effect of answering these online selection and search queries, we
progressively sort the list. Our algorithms are based on Hoare's Quickselect,
and are parameterized based on the pivot selection method.
For example, if we choose the pivot as the last item in a subinterval, our
framework yields algorithms that will answer q<=n unique selection and/or
search queries in a total of O(n log q) average time. After q=\Omega(n) queries
the list is sorted. Each repeated selection query takes constant time, and each
repeated search query takes O(log n) time. The two query types can be
interleaved freely. By plugging different pivot selection methods into our
framework, these results can, for example, become randomized expected time or
deterministic worst-case time. Our methods are easy to implement, and we show
they perform well in practice
Cache-Oblivious Persistence
Partial persistence is a general transformation that takes a data structure
and allows queries to be executed on any past state of the structure. The
cache-oblivious model is the leading model of a modern multi-level memory
hierarchy.We present the first general transformation for making
cache-oblivious model data structures partially persistent
04301 Abstracts Collection -- Cache-Oblivious and Cache-Aware Algorithms
The Dagstuhl Seminar 04301 ``Cache-Oblivious and Cache-Aware Algorithms\u27\u27 was held
in the International Conference and Research Center (IBFI), Schloss Dagstuhl, from 18.07.2004 to 23.07.2004.
During the seminar, several participants presented their current
research, and ongoing work and open problems were discussed. Abstracts of
the presentations given during the seminar as well as abstracts of
seminar results and ideas are put together in this paper. The first section
describes the seminar topics and goals in general.

Anti-Persistence on Persistent Storage: History-Independent Sparse Tables and Dictionaries
International audienceWe present history-independent alternatives to a B-tree, the primary indexing data structure used in databases. A data structure is history independent (HI) if it is impossible to deduce any information by examining the bit representation of the data structure that is not already available through the API. We show how to build a history-independent cache-oblivious B-tree and a history-independent external-memory skip list. One of the main contributions is a data structure we build on the way—a history-independent packed-memory array (PMA). The PMA supports efficient range queries, one of the most important operations for answering database queries. Our HI PMA matches the asymptotic bounds of prior non-HI packed-memory arrays and sparse tables. Specifically, a PMA maintains a dynamic set of elements in sorted order in a linear-sized array. Inserts and deletes take an amortized O(log^2 N) element moves with high probability. Simple experiments with our implementation of HI PMAs corroborate our theoretical analysis. Comparisons to regular PMAs give preliminary indications that the practical cost of adding history-independence is not too large. Our HI cache-oblivious B-tree bounds match those of prior non-* HI cache-oblivious B-trees. Searches take O(log_B N) I/Os; inserts and deletes take O((log^2 N)/B + log_B N) amortized I/Os with high probability; and range queries returning k elements take O(log_B N + k/B) I/Os. Our HI external-memory skip list achieves optimal bounds with high probability, analogous to in-memory skip lists: O(log_B N) I/Os for point queries and amortized O(log_B N) I/Os for in-serts/deletes. Range queries returning k elements run in O(log_B N + k/B) I/Os. In contrast, the best possible high-probability bounds for inserting into the folklore B-skip list, which promotes elements with probability 1/B, is just Θ(log N) I/Os. This is no better than the bounds one gets from running an in-memory skip list in external memory
Praktické datové struktury
V této práci implementujeme datové struktury pro uspořádané a neuspořádané slovníky a měříme jejich výkon v hlavní paměti pomocí syntetických i praktických experimentů. Náš průzkum zahrnuje jak obvyklé datové struktury (B-stromy, červeno-černé stromy, splay stromy a hashování), tak exotičtější přístupy (k-splay stromy a k-lesy). Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)In this thesis, we implement several data structures for ordered and unordered dictionaries and we benchmark their performance in main memory on synthetic and practical workloads. Our survey includes both well-known data structures (B-trees, red-black trees, splay trees and hashing) and more exotic approaches (k-splay trees and k-forests).
