tskiplist: A Skip List Implementation in Software Transactional Memory (STM)

[ concurrency, data, library ] [ Propose Tags ]

This package provides an implementation of a skip list in STM. A skip list is a probabilistic data structure with dictionary operations and support for efficient range-queries (similarly to Data.Map). In contrast to tree data structures, a skip list does not need any rebalancing, which makes it particularly suitable for concurrent programming. See: William Pugh. Skip Lists: A Probabilistic Alternative to Balanced Trees.
