Solid state drives perform random reads more than 100x faster than traditional magnetic hard disks, while offering comparable sequential read and write bandwidth. Because of their...
Hash tables are one of the most fundamental data structures in computer science, in both theory and practice. They are especially useful in external memory, where their query perf...
Background: Knowledge of transcription factor-DNA binding patterns is crucial for understanding gene transcription. Numerous DNA-binding proteins are annotated as transcription fa...

Random binary search trees, b-ary search trees, median-of-(2k+1) trees, quadtrees, simplex trees, tries, and digital search trees are special cases of random split trees. For these...
Background: Genomic position (GP) files currently used in next-generation sequencing (NGS) studies are always difficult to manipulate due to their huge size and the lack of approp...
