The calendar heap: A new implementation of the calendar queue

A new implementation of the calendar queue is described in this thesis. The calendar queue as previously implemented depended upon the use of multiple linked lists for the control of queue discipline. In the calendar heap implementation, the heap has been used to replace the previous functions of th...
