Abstract

A data structure is described which is useful for representing linear lists when the pattern of accesses to a list exhibits a (perhaps time-varying) locality of reference. The structure has many of the properties of the representation proposed by L. J. Guibas et al. , but is substantially simpler and may be practical for lists of moderate size. The analysis of this structure includes a general treatment of the worst-case node splitting caused by consecutive insertions into a 2-3 tree.
