Lecture 12

Circular Queue and Priority Queue Data Structures

Recap on Queues

Addition to a queue (enqueue)

 

addq (item , queue)begin     if rear = size then queuefull

    else begin

         q[rear] = item increment rear

    end end

Deletion from a queue (dequeue)

 deleteq (item , queue)

begin     if front = rear then queueempty     else begin

item = q[front]         front = front+1     end end

Circular Array

Allows array to wrap round to the front Array bounds no longer dictate empty or full How do I define empty /Full Underflow/Overflow If pointer to front catches up with rear on dequeuing

then underflow If result of enqueing means rear pointer = front then

overflow

Circular Queue

Front = rear is used to define both empty and full

Sacrifice one element in the array by initialising size to size –1

If rear = front can’t add element Test for remove happened before front is

updated

Circular Queues

If rear++ == front Insertion would

cause overflow If rear = front

Removal would cause underflow

Circular Queue FunctionsAddition to a queue (enqueue) addq (item , queue)

begin     if rear + 1 = front then queueoverflow     else begin

q[rear] = itemincrement rear

rear = rear mod (size –1)    end end

Deletion from a queue (dequeue) deleteq (item , queue)

begin     if front = rear then queueunderflow     else

begin item = q[front]

        front = front+1 front = front mod (size –1)

     end end

Priority Queue Stacks and queues are linear structures Very efficient in terms of insertion and deletion Not so efficient for locating specific data We have to do several operations of load and unload to

access specific data Priority is a means of storing data such that unloading

produces most relevant data to an operation E.g. most important process running in job scheduler Uses ‘heap sort’ which always puts highest priority at head of

queue Not the same as a conventional ordinal sort

Priority Priority is defined as the largest or highest

ranking Stack deletes newest Queue deletes oldest Priority queue deletes highest priority Newest item inserted to retain integrity of

priority Employs heap sort

Heap

Attempts to maintain complete tree Balanced Fills from left to right on each level No more than one level between leaves Root always contains highest priority value Deletion always is from root Heap reorganised on deletion How?

21 is in position 8 – 8/2 = 4 22 is in pos 4 – no swap

24 is in position 9 – 9/2 = 4 22 is in pos 4 – swap

Recap Circular queues more efficient than standard

queue Linked list implementation of queue obviates

need for circular queue. Dynamic. Priority Queue always yields highest priority for

deletion Implements heap sort Maintains complete tree structure
