13. PlanetMath: heap insertion algorithm
- planetmath.org
- heap insertion algorithm .
- The heap insertion algorithm inserts a new value into a heap, maintaining the heap property. Let be a heap, storing elements over which the relation imposes a total ordering. Insertion of a value consists of initially adding to the bottom of the tree, and then sifting it upwards until the heap property is regained.
- If holds, then the heap property is violated. ...
- Since the maximum number of times that the sift operation can occur is constrained by the depth of the tree, the worst case time complexity for heap insertion is. This means that a heap can be built from scratch to hold a multiset of values in time.
- What follows is the pseudocode for implementing a heap insertion. For the given pseudocode, we presume that the heap is actually represented implicitly in an array (see the binary tree entry for details).

- Heap.
- j , where i>=1, is a heap iff every element is no smaller than its children, if any. ... j is a heap, a 1 must hold the largest value in a . ...
- Note, there is a similar definition for a heap with the smallest value at the top. ... j-1 as the heap, but the definitions of left and right must be changed -Exercise . ...
- i-1 is already a heap, a new element could be placed at a i except that it might violate the heap property, i. ...
- child-1 is a Heap // POST: a 1. ... child is a Heap { var newElt = a child ; var parent = Math. ... is a Heap if( a parent < newElt ) { a child = a parent ; // move parent down child = parent; parent = Math. ...
- This may violate the heap property, in fact it is likely to do so because elements near the "bottom" tend to be of low priority. The solution is to move the element down the heap until it is no smaller than its children, if any. ...
- N is a Heap, and parent >= 1 // POST: a parent. ... N is a Heap { var newElt = a parent ; var child = 2*parent; // left(parent) while( child <= N ) // parent has a child { // INV: a 1. ... parent is a Heap if( child < N ) // has 2 children if( a child+1 > a child ) child++; // right child is bigger if( newElt < a child ) { a parent = a child ; parent = child; child = 2*parent; } else break; } // ASSERT: child > N || newElt >= a child a parent = newElt; }//downHeap // to remove highest priority element highest = a 1 ; a 1 = a N ; N--; downHeap(1) Demonstration.
- The height of a heap of n elements is ~log2(n), and the maximum time for insertion and for removing the highest priority item is O(log(n)). ...
- The heap operations take O(1)-space.

- None of it delves into the ZSH_MEM allocators -- it's all heap stuff. ... Hrm, lines 314-316 are: DPUTS(!h, "BUG: hrealloc() called for non-heap memory. "); DPUTS(h->sp && arena(h) + h->sp->used > p, "BUG: hrealloc() wants to realloc pushed memory"); If the first DPUTS prints (ie, non-heap memory) then won't this dereference a null-pointer? At least dputs() fflush()s stderr, so we see the error message before getting the core dump. ...

16. heap - a Whatis.com definition
- whatis.techtarget.com
- heap.
- In certain programming languages including C and Pascal, a heap is an area of pre-reserved computer main storage (memory) that a program process can use to store data in some variable amount that won't be known until the program is running. ... Having a certain amount of heap storage already obtained from the operating system makes it easier for the process to manage storage and is generally faster than asking the operating system for storage every time it's needed. The process manages its allocated heap by requesting a "chunk" of the heap (called a heap block) when needed, returning the blocks when no longer needed, and doing occasional "garbage collecting," which makes blocks available that are no longer being used and also reorganizes the available space in the heap so that it isn't being wasted in small unused pieces. ...
- A stack is similar to a heap except that the blocks are taken out of storage in a certain order and returned in the same way. In Pascal, a subheap is a portion of a heap that is treated like a stack. ...
17. Cprogramming.com - Data Structures - Introduction to Heaps
- www.cprogramming.com
- What is a heap?.
- A heap is a partially sorted binary tree. Although a heap is not completely in order, it conforms to a sorting principle: every node has a value less (for the sake of simplicity, we will assume that all orderings are from least to greatest) than either of its children. Additionally, a heap is a "complete tree" -- a complete tree is one in which there are no gaps between leaves. ...
- Why use a heap?.
- A heap can be thought of as a priority queue; the most important node will always be at the top, and when removed, its replacement will be the most important. ...
- A heap sort is O(nlogn) efficiency, though it is not the fastest possible sorting algorithm. Check out a tutorial on heap sort for more information related to heap sort. ...
- How do you implement a heap?.
- Although the concept of a heap is simple, the actual implementation can appear tricky. How do you remove the root node and still ensure that it is eventually replaced by the correct node? How do you add a new node to a heap and ensure that it is moved into the proper spot?.
- The answers to these questions are more straight forward than meets the eye, but to understand the process, let's first take a look at two operations that are used for adding and removing nodes from a heap: upheaping and downheaping. ...
- Upheap: The upheap process is used to add a node to a heap. ... As you know that in a heap, a node is always less than its parent node, you are assured that if the node you are upheaping is less than its parent node, that that node is also less than the parents of the parent node. ...
- When you add a new node to a heap, you add it to the rightmost unoccupied leaf on the lowest level. ... In this way, the heap's order is maintained and the heap remains a complete tree.
18. Heap Sort
- www.csse.monash.edu.au
- Heap Sort.
- Heap.
- Heap sort forces a certain property onto an array which makes it into what is known as a heap. ...
- --- Array as a Heap ---.
- j is called a heap if the value of each element is greater than or equal to the values of its children, if any. ... N is heap, then a 1 is the largest element of the array. ...
- N is a heap, a k. ... N can be made into a heap efficiently: .
- N is a heap */ /* POST: a k. ... N is a heap */ { int newElt, child; newElt=a k ; while(k <= N/2) /* k has child(s) */ { child = 2*k; /* pick larger child */ if(child < N && a child < a child+1 ) child++; if(newElt >= a child ) break; /* else */ a k = a child ; /* move child up */ k = child; } a k = newElt; }/*downHeap*/ .
- This operation moves the new element, a k , down the heap, moving larger children up, until the new element can be placed in such a way as to maintain the heap property. The heap can have "height" at most log2(N), so the operation takes at most O(log(N)) time. ...
- Heap Sort.
- This now leads to a version of heap sort known as (bottom-up) heap sort:.
- N is now a heap */ for(i=N; i > 1; i--) { temp = a i ; a i =a 1 ; /* largest of a 1. ... i-1 heap */ } }/*heapSort*/ Heap Sort Demonstration.

- The Trash Heap lives in a pit in the woods behind the Gorgs' castle. She is a living compost heap - an ancient collection of old grapefruit rinds, grass clippings, tin cans, coffee grounds, potato peels and assorted trash which one day mysteriously came to life. The Fraggles brave the dangers of the Gorgs' Garden to seek the Trash Heap's advice in time of trouble. The Trash Heap is an oracle. ... The Trash Heap may be the Creative Force behind the universe. ...

- qts) Heap Overflow.
- The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to reliably overwrite heap memory with user-controlled data and execute arbitrary code in the context of the user who executed the player or application hosting the QuickTime plug-in.
- By specially crafting atoms within a movie file, a direct heap overwrite is triggered, and reliable code execution is then possible.
- qts responsible for copying Sample-to-Chunk table entries from the 'stsc' atom data in a QuickTime-format movie into an array allocated on the heap. ...
- The heap block intended to hold the sample-to-chunk table data is allocated with a size equal to (number_of_entries + 2) * 16. By supplying the "number of entries" field with the value 0x0FFFFFFE or greater, an absolutely classic integer overflow results that causes an insufficiently-sized heap block to be allocated, resulting in an equally classic complete heap memory overwrite.
22. Heap of Fish Java Applet - an Interactive Illustration of Garbage Collection
- www.artima.com
- Heap of Fish.
- A Simulation of a Garbage-Collected Heap.
- The Heap of Fish applet, included below, demonstrates a compacting, mark and sweep, garbage-collected heap. This applet accompanies Chapter 9, "The Garbage-Collected Heap," of Inside the Java 2 Virtual Machine. ...
- To facilitate compaction, this heap uses indirect handles to objects instead of direct references. It is called Heap of Fish because the only type of objects stored on the heap for this demonstration are fish objects, defined as follows: // On CD-ROM in file gc/ex1/YellowFish. ...
- In this implementation of a garbage-collected heap, a reference to an object occupies four bytes. ...
- Heap of Fish has five modes, which can be selected via radio buttons at the bottom left of the applet. ... The other four modes--allocate fish, assign references, garbage collect, and compact heap--allow you to interact with the heap. ... The compact heap mode allows you to slide heap objects so that they are side by side at one end of the heap, leaving all free memory as one large contiguous block at the other end of the heap. ...
- The allocate fish mode allows you to allocate new fish objects on the heap. In this mode you can see the two parts that make up the heap: the object pool and the handle pool. ...
- The object pool in Heap of Fish is implemented as an array of ints. ...
- The handle pool in Heap of Fish is implemented as an array of objects of a class named ObjectHandle. ... As mentioned in Chapter 5, "The Java Virtual Machine, " every object on the heap must in some way be associated with its class information stored in the method area. In Heap of Fish, the ObjectHandle associates each allocated object with information such as its class--whether it is a RedFish, BlueFish, or YellowFish--and some data used in displaying the fish in the applet user interface. ...
23. Sorites Paradox
- plato.stanford.edu
- For example, the concept of a heap appears to lack sharp boundaries and, as a consequence of the subsequent indeterminacy surrounding the extension of the predicate ‘is a heap’, no one grain of wheat can be identified as making the difference between being a heap and not being a heap. Given then that one grain of wheat does not make a heap, it would seem to follow that two do not, thus three do not, and so on. In the end it would appear that no amount of wheat can make a heap. ...
- The name ‘sorites’ derives from the Greek word soros (meaning ‘heap’) and originally referred, not to a paradox, but rather to a puzzle known as The Heap: Would you describe a single grain of wheat as a heap? No. Would you describe two grains of wheat as a heap? No. … You must admit the presence of a heap sooner or later, so where do you draw the line? .
- It was seen to have the same form as the Heap and all such puzzles became collectively known as sorites puzzles.
- 1 grain of wheat does not make a heap. If 1 grain of wheat does not make a heap then 2 grains of wheat do not. If 2 grains of wheat do not make a heap then 3 grains do not. … If 9,999 grains of wheat do not make a heap then 10,000 do not. 10,000 grains of wheat do not make a heap. ...
- As presented, the paradox of the Heap and the Bald Man proceed by addition (of grains of wheat and hairs on the head respectively). ... If one is prepared to admit that ten thousand grains of sand make a heap then one can argue that one grain of sand does since the removal of any one grain of sand cannot make the difference. ... It was thus recognised, even in antiquity, that sorites arguments come in pairs, using: ‘non-heap’ and ‘heap’; ‘bald’ and ‘hirsute’; ‘poor’ and ‘rich’; ‘few’ and ‘many’; ‘small’ and ‘large’; and so on. ...
- , ‘is bald’, or ‘does not make a heap’) and let the expression ‘an’ (where n is a natural number) represent a subject expression in the series with regard to which ‘F’ is soritical (e. ...

- After you install security update 873333, a component's heap may be corrupted when you use Component Object Model (COM) application programming interfaces (APIs). ...
- When a pointer that does not point to the start of the heap block is returned to the heap, the heap is corrupted.
- If pointer adjustments are made in PostAlloc, the pointer that is returned to the heap will not be valid. Therefore, the heap is corrupted. ...
- Therefore, this issue primarily affects developers who use IMallocSpy to debug their program heap allocations.
