—Given n discrete random variables = fX1;111; Xng, associated with any subset of f1; 2; 111; ng, there is a joint entropy H(X) where X = fXi:i 2 g. This can be viewed as a f...
Hash tables are one of the most fundamental data structures in computer science, in both theory and practice. They are especially useful in external memory, where their query perf...
The B-tree is a fundamental external index structure that is widely used for answering one-dimensional range reporting queries. Given a set of N keys, a range query can be answere...
