tailieunhanh - Lecture note Java methods A & AB: Object-oriented programming and data structures: Chapter 25 - Maria Litvin, Gary Litvin
Chapter 25 - Heaps and priority queues. This chapter completes our tour of data structures. After you have mastered the material in this chapter, you will be able to: Learn about heaps, review the class, learn about heapsort. | Java Methods A & AB Object-Oriented Programming and Data Structures Maria Litvin ● Gary Litvin Copyright © 2006 by Maria Litvin, Gary Litvin, and Skylight Publishing.

Priority Queues A priority queue is a data structure for temporary storage that delivers the stored items in order of their priority: an item with higher priority is delivered first. The objects in a priority queue are Comparable (or a comparator is provided). According to convention, the smaller item has higher priority. 25- A priority queue can hold duplicate objects. Instead of using comparable objects, we could use items with some method defined that returns the item’s priority.

Instead of using comparable objects, we could use items with some method defined that returns the item’s priority. If priority can take only a small number of discrete values (for example, 0 - 9), we can use a mechanism similar to a lookup table, arranging the items in order of their priority (for example, an array of FIFO queues, each queue for objects of a particular priority). Possible Implementations A sorted list: items are stored in order of priority remove and peek are O(1), but add is O(n). An unsorted list: items are stored in order of their arrival add is O(1) but remove and peek are O(n). Either way, one of the methods creates a bottleneck. 25- As usual, a divide-and-conquer type of structure helps overcome this bottleneck. Heaps A heap is a particular kind of a binary tree. Heaps provide a way to implement priority queues in such a way that both add and remove take O(log n) time. A heap can be stored in an array (or in an ArrayList). 25- And peek takes O(1) time. Full and Complete Binary Trees Full tree: all levels are filled; a full tree with h levels holds 2h - 1 nodes. Complete tree: all levels are filled, except perhaps the bottom one
