โฆ Synopsis
We employ a P6lya urn to model rotations in a random fringe-balanced binary search tree. We show that asymptotically the number of rotations to construct a tree of size n has a normal distribution with mean +n and variance sn. Exact results for mean and variance are developed in the process. @ 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

In the next section we present basic definitions and notations where the criterion of optimality is defined and related to the concept of ''normal'' algorithms. In Section 3 we present an optimal embedding method that balances the processor loads. In Section 4 we present a nonoptimal embedding metho
Multidimensional binary trees represent a symbiosis of trees and tries, and they essentially arise in the construction of search trees for multidimensional keys. The set of nodes in a d-dimensional binary tree can be partitioned into layers according to the nodes appearing in the ith dimension. We d
