Class BinaryArrayIntegerValueHeap<V>

  • Type Parameters:
    V - the type of values maintained by this heap
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, Heap<java.lang.Integer>, ValueHeap<java.lang.Integer,​V>

    public class BinaryArrayIntegerValueHeap<V>
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements ValueHeap<java.lang.Integer,​V>, java.io.Serializable
    An optimized array-based binary heap with integer keys.

    This is a highly optimized implementation which uses (a) the Wegener bottom-up heuristic and (b) sentinel values. The implementation uses an array in order to store the elements, providing amortized O(log(n)) time for the insert and deleteMin operations. Operation findMin, is a worst-case O(1) operation. All bounds are worst-case if the user initializes the heap with a capacity larger or equal to the total number of elements that are going to be inserted into the heap.

    See the following papers for details about the optimizations:

    • Ingo Wegener. BOTTOM-UP-HEAPSORT, a new variant of HEAPSORT beating, on an average, QUICKSORT (if n is not very small). Theoretical Computer Science, 118(1), 81--98, 1993.
    • Peter Sanders. Fast Priority Queues for Cached Memory. Algorithms Engineering and Experiments (ALENEX), 312--327, 1999.

    Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access a heap concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies the heap structurally, it must be synchronized externally. (A structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more elements or changing the key of some element.) This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the heap.

      • BinaryArrayIntegerValueHeap

        public BinaryArrayIntegerValueHeap()
        Constructs a new, empty heap, using the natural ordering of its keys.

        The initial capacity of the heap is DEFAULT_HEAP_CAPACITY and adjusts automatically based on the sequence of insertions and deletions.

        Constructs a new, empty heap, with a provided initial capacity using the natural ordering of its keys.

        The initial capacity of the heap is provided by the user and is adjusted automatically based on the sequence of insertions and deletions. The capacity will never become smaller than the initial requested capacity.

        Parameters:
        capacity - the initial heap capacity
