Type Parameters:

Direct Known Subclasses:
BinaryArrayBulkInsertWeakHeap

public class BinaryArrayWeakHeap<K> extends Object implements Serializable
An array based binary weak heap. The heap is sorted according to the natural ordering of its keys, or by a Comparator provided at heap creation time, depending on which constructor is used.

The implementation uses an array in order to store the elements and automatically maintains the size of the array much like a Vector does, providing amortized O(log(n)) time cost for the insert and deleteMin operations. Operation findMin, is a worst-case O(1) operation. The bounds are worst-case if the user initializes the heap with a capacity larger or equal to the total number of elements that are going to be inserted into the heap.

Constructing such a heap from an array of elements can be performed using the method heapify(Object[]) or heapify(Object[], Comparator) in linear time.

Note that the ordering maintained by a binary heap, like any heap, and whether or not an explicit comparator is provided, must be consistent with equals if this heap is to correctly implement the Heap interface. (See Comparable or Comparator for a precise definition of consistent with equals.) This is so because the Heap interface is defined in terms of the equals operation, but a binary heap performs all key comparisons using its compareTo (or compare) method, so two keys that are deemed equal by this method are, from the standpoint of the binary heap, equal. The behavior of a heap is well-defined even if its ordering is inconsistent with equals; it just fails to obey the general contract of the Heap interface.

Note that this implementation is not synchronized. If multiple threads access a heap concurrently, and at least one of the threads modifies the heap structurally, it must be synchronized externally. (A structural modification is any operation that adds or deletes one or more elements or changing the key of some element.) This is typically accomplished by synchronizing on some object that naturally encapsulates the heap.

    • BinaryArrayWeakHeap

      public BinaryArrayWeakHeap()
      Constructs a new, empty heap, using the natural ordering of its keys.

      All keys inserted into the heap must implement the Comparable interface. Furthermore, all such keys must be mutually comparable: k1.compareTo(k2) must not throw a ClassCastException for any keys k1 and k2 in the heap. If the user attempts to put a key into the heap that violates this constraint (for example, the user attempts to put a string key into a heap whose keys are integers), the insert(Object key) call will throw a ClassCastException.

      The initial capacity of the heap is DEFAULT_HEAP_CAPACITY and adjusts automatically based on the sequence of insertions and deletions.
