dc.description.abstract | In this paper we present the external interval tree, an optimal external memory data structure for answering stabbing queries on a set of dynamically maintained intervals. The external interval tree can be usedin an optimal solution to the dynamic interval management problem, which is a central problem for object-orientedandtemp oral databases andfor constraint logic programming.Part of the structure uses a weight-balancing technique for efficient worst-case manipulation of balanced trees, which is of independent interest. The external interval tree, as well as our new balancing technique, have recently been used to develop several efficient external data structures. | |
