Abstract

In this paper we present a uniform framework for the implementation and study of balanced tree algorithms. We show how to imhcd in this framework the best known balanced tree techniques and then use the framework to develop new which perform the update and rebalancing in one pass, Oil the way down towards a leaf. We conclude with a study of performance issues and concurrent updating.
