  1. Queues • Linear list. • One end is called front. • Other end is called rear. • Additions are done at the rear only. • Removals are made from the front only.

  4. Bus Stop Bus Stop Queue front rear rear

  5. Bus Stop Bus Stop Queue front rear rear

  6. Revisit Of Stack Applications • Applications in which the stack cannot be replaced with a queue. • Parentheses matching. • Towers of Hanoi. • Switchbox routing. • Method invocation and return. • Try-catch-throw implementation. • Application in which the stack may be replaced with a queue. • Rat in a maze. • Results in finding shortest path to exit.

  16. Queue Operations • IsFullQ … return true iff queue is full • IsEmptyQ … return true iff queue is empty • AddQ … add an element at the rear of the queue • DeleteQ … delete and return the front element of the queue

  17. Queue in an Array • Use a 1D array to represent a queue. • Suppose queue elements are stored with the front element in queue[0], the next in queue[1], and so on.

  18. a b c d e 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Queue in an Array • DeleteQ() => delete queue[0] • O(queue size) time • AddQ(x) => if there is capacity, add at right end • O(1) time

  19. O(1) AddQ and DeleteQ • to perform each opertion in O(1) time (excluding array doubling), we use a circular representation.

  20. queue[] [2] [3] [1] [4] [0] [5] Circular Array • Use a 1D array queue. • Circular view of array.

  21. [2] [3] A B C [1] [4] [0] [5] Circular Array • Possible configuration with 3 elements.

  22. [2] [3] C [1] [4] B A [0] [5] Circular Array • Another possible configuration with 3 elements.

  23. [2] [3] [2] [3] A B rear rear front front C C [1] [4] [1] [4] B A [0] [5] [0] [5] Circular Array • Use integer variables front and rear. • front is one position counterclockwise from first element • rear gives position of last element

  24. [2] [3] A B rear front C [1] [4] [0] [5] Add An Element • Move rear one clockwise.

  25. [2] [3] A B front C [1] [4] [0] [5] rear Add An Element • Move rear one clockwise. • Then put into queue[rear]. D

  26. [2] [3] A B rear front C [1] [4] [0] [5] Delete An Element • Move front one clockwise.

  27. [2] [3] front A B rear C [1] [4] [0] [5] Delete An Element • Move front one clockwise. • Then extract from queue[front].

  28. [2] [3] A B rear front C [1] [4] [0] [5] Moving rear Clockwise • rear++; • if(rear = = capacity) rear = 0; • rear = (rear + 1) % capacity;

  29. [2] [3] rear front C [1] [4] B A [0] [5] Empty That Queue

  30. [2] [3] rear C [1] [4] B [0] [5] Empty That Queue front

  31. [2] [3] rear C [1] [4] [0] [5] Empty That Queue front

  32. [2] [3] rear [1] [4] [0] [5] Empty That Queue • When a series of removes causes the queue to become empty, front = rear. • When a queue is constructed, it is empty. • So initialize front = rear = 0. front

  33. [2] [3] rear front C [1] [4] B A [0] [5] A Full Tank Please

  34. [2] [3] rear front [1] [4] [0] [5] A Full Tank Please D C B A

  35. [2] [3] front [1] [4] [0] [5] A Full Tank Please rear D E C B A

  36. [2] [3] front [1] [4] [0] [5] A Full Tank Please D E C F B A rear • When a series of adds causes the queue to become full, front = rear. • So we cannot distinguish between a full queue and an empty queue!

  37. Ouch!!!!! • Remedies. • Don’t let the queue get full. • When the addition of an element will cause the queue to be full, increase array size. • This is what the text does. • Define a boolean variable lastOperationIsAddQ. • Following each AddQ set this variable to true. • Following each DeleteQ set to false. • Queue is empty iff (front == rear) && !lastOperationIsAddQ • Queue is full iff (front == rear) && lastOperationIsAddQ

  38. Ouch!!!!! • Remedies (continued). • Define an integer variable size. • Following each AddQ do size++. • Following each DeleteQ do size--. • Queue is empty iff (size == 0) • Queue is full iff (size == arrayLength) • Performance is slightly better when first strategy is used.
