Abstract: The linear-probing hash table is one of the oldest and most widely used data structures in computer science. However, linear probing famously comes with a major draw-back: as soon as the ...

We believe Sparsepp provides an unparalleled combination of performance and memory usage, and will outperform your compiler's unordered_map on both counts. Only Google's dense_hash_map is consistently ...

Hash tables are one of the oldest and simplest data structures for storing elements and supporting deletions and queries. Invented in 1953, they underly most computational systems. Yet despite their ...

Linus Torvalds has just announced the release of Linux 6.15: So this was delayed by a couple of hours because of a last-minute bug report resulting in one new feature being disabled at the eleventh ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Sometime in the fall of 2021, Andrew Krapivin, an undergraduate at Rutgers University, encountered a paper that would change his life.

It isn't often that a decades-old assumption underpinning modern technology is overturned, but a recent paper based on the work of an undergraduate and his two co-authors has done just that. That ...

A young computer scientist and two colleagues show that searches within data structures called hash tables can be much faster than previously deemed possible. Sometime in the fall of 2021, Andrew ...

A map (also known as an associative array, hash table, hash map, hash set, dict) is an essential data structure for solving different algorithmic problems during day-to-day work, in programming ...

The two major closed source AMD ethash miners, Claymore and Phoenix, both indicate a significant element of added hash rate of +1.5-2.3% in their displayed and reported values. Please note that this ...
