Melding Priority Queues
We show that any priority queue data structure that supports insert, delete, and find-min operations in pq(n) time, when n is an upper bound on the number of elements in the prio...

Two new methods for constructing double-ended priority queues from priority queues
We introduce two data-structural transformations to construct doubleended priority queues from priority queues. To apply our transformations the priority queues exploited must sup...

The soft heap: an approximate priority queue with optimal error rate
A simple variant of a priority queue, called a soft heap, is introduced. The data structure supports the usual operations: insert, delete, meld, and findmin. Its novelty is to beat...

Revisiting priority queues for image analysis
Many algorithms in image analysis require a priority queue, a data structure that holds pointers to pixels in the image, and which allows efficiently finding the pixel in the queu...

Towards a Final Analysis of Pairing Heaps
Fredman, Sedgewick, Sleator, and Tarjan proposed the pairing heap as a self-adjusting, streamlined version of the Fibonacci heap. It provably supports all priority queue operation...
