“…In the algorithms literature, where the focus is also on improving time, a huge amount of research has been devoted to memory constrained algorithms, even as early as in the 1980s [38]. Early work on this focused on the selection problem [25,28,38,39], but more recently on computational geometry problems [3,6,9,21,26] and graph algorithms [24,4,8,34,17,32]. Regarding the data structure we develop to support findany operation, Elmasry et al [Lemma 2.1, [24]] state a data structure (without proof) that supports all the operations i.e., insert, search, delete and findany (they call it some id) among others, in constant time.…”
