    • Lists revisited: cache conscious STL lists 

      Frias Moya, Leonor; Petit Silvestre, Jordi; Roura Ferret, Salvador (2005-11)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      We present three cache conscious implementations of STL standard compliant lists. Up to now, one could either find simple double linked list implementations that easily cope with standard strict requirements, or theoretical ...
    • Median and hybrid median K-dimensional trees 

      Duch Brown, Amalia; Martínez Parra, Conrado; Pons, Mercè; Roura Ferret, Salvador (Springer, 2022)
      Article
      Accés obert
      We consider here two new variants of K-dimensional binary search trees (K-d trees): median K-d trees and hybrid-median K-d trees. These two kinds of trees are designed with the aim to get a tree as balanced as possible. ...
    • Minimal representations for majority games 

      Freixas Bosch, Josep; Molinero Albareda, Xavier; Roura Ferret, Salvador (2007-02)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      This paper presents some new results about majority games. Isbell (1959) was the first to find a majority game without a minimum normalized representation; he needed 12 voters to construct such a game. Since then, it has ...
    • Multidimension: a dimensionality extension of simple games 

      Molinero Albareda, Xavier; Riquelme Csori, Fabián; Roura Ferret, Salvador; Serna Iglesias, María José (Springer, 2023-10-20)
      Article
      Accés obert
      In voting theory and social choice theory, decision systems can be represented as simple games, i.e., cooperative games defined through their players or voters and their set of winning coalitions. The weighted voting games ...
    • Multikey Quickselect 

      Frias Moya, Leonor; Roura Ferret, Salvador (2009-07)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      In this paper we introduce Multikey Quickselect: an efficient, in-place, and easy to implement algorithm for the selection problem for strings. We present several variants of our basic algorithm, which apply to two different ...
    • New results about the list access problem 

      Roura Ferret, Salvador; Martínez Parra, Conrado (1996-11-27)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      We consider the list access problem and show that two unrealistic assumptions in the original cost model presented in and subsequent literature allow for several competitiveness resulst of the move-to-front heuristic (MTF). ...
    • On the competitiveness of the move-to-front rule 

      Roura Ferret, Salvador; Martínez Parra, Conrado (1996-11)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      We consider the list access problem and show that one questionable assumption in the original cost model presented by Sleator and Tarjan (Amortized Efficiency of List Update and Paging Rules, CACM, 28(2):202-208, ...
    • On the generalized dimension and codimension of simple games 

      Molinero Albareda, Xavier; Riquelme Csori, Fabián; Roura Ferret, Salvador; Serna Iglesias, María José (2023-04-16)
      Article
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      Weighted voting games are simple games that can be represented by a collection of integer weights for each player so that a coalition wins if the sum of the player weights matches or exceeds a given quota. It is known that ...
    • Optimal and nearly optimal weighted skip lists 

      Martínez Parra, Conrado; Roura Ferret, Salvador (1995-01-01)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      We consider the problem of building a static (i.e. no updates are performed) skip list of n elements, given these n elements and the corresponding access probabilities or weights. We develop a dynamic programming algorithm ...
    • Optimal sampling strategies in quicksort and quickselect 

      Martínez Parra, Conrado; Roura Ferret, Salvador (1998-01)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      It is well-known that the performance of quicksort may substantially be improved by selecting the median of a sample of three elements as the pivot of each partitioning stage. This variant makes more unlikely the ...
    • Programación-1: Una asignatura orientada a la resolución de problemas 

      Petit Silvestre, Jordi; Roura Ferret, Salvador (2009-06-20T11:38:12Z)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés obert
      En este artículo presentamos el nuevo método docente de la asignatura Programació-1 en la Facultat d’Informàtica de Barcelona de la Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, y damos cuenta de los resultados obtenidos durante ...
    • Quad-kd trees: A general framework for kd trees and quad trees 

      Bereczky, Nikolett; Duch Brown, Amalia; Németh, Krisztián; Roura Ferret, Salvador (2016-02-22)
      Article
      Accés obert
      We introduce the quad-kd tree: a general purpose and hierarchical data structure for the storage of multidimensional points. Quad-kd trees include point quad trees and kd trees as particular cases and therefore they could ...
    • Randomization of search trees by subtree size 

      Martínez Parra, Conrado; Roura Ferret, Salvador (1996-01)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      In this paper we present probabilistic algorithms over random binary search trees such that: a) the insertion of a set of keys in any fixed order into an initially empty tree produces always a random tree; b) the deletion ...
    • Randomized binary search trees 

      Martínez Parra, Conrado; Roura Ferret, Salvador (1997-01)
      Report de recerca
      Accés obert
      In this paper we present randomized algorithms over binary search trees such that: a) the insertion of a set of keys, in any fixed order, into an initially empty tree always produces a random binary search tree; b) the ...
