Many database systems that use a B+ tree as the underlying data structure do not do rebalancing on deletion. This means that a bad sequence of deletions can create a very unbalance...
Biologists studying the evolutionary relationships between organisms use software packages to solve the computational problems they encounter. Several of these problems involve th...
