Practical rearrangement methods for dynamic double-array dictionaries

摘要

Double-array structures have been widely used to implement dictionaries with string keys. Although the space efficiency of dynamic double-array dictionaries tends to decrease with key updates, we can still maintain high efficiency using existing methods. However, these methods have practical problems of time and functionality. This paper presents several efficient rearrangement methods to solve these problems. Through experiments using real-world datasets, we demonstrate that the proposed rearrangement methods are much more practical than existing methods.
