Abstract:

Pooya Davoodi, Jeremy T. Fineman, John Iacono, Özgür Özkan

Partial persistence is a general transformation that takes a data structure and allows queries to be executed on any past state of the structure. The cache-oblivious model is the leading model of a modern multi-level memory hierarchy. We present the first general transformation for making cache-oblivious model data structures partially persistent.
