We present the CBTree, a new counting-based self-adjusting sequential search tree that, like splay trees, moves more frequently accessed nodes closer to the root: After M operations on N items, Q of which access some item V, an operation on V traverses a path of length O(log M/Q) while performing few if any rotations.

In contrast to the traditional self-adjusting splay tree in which each accessed item is moved to the root through a sequence of tree rotations, the CBTree performs rotations infrequently (an amortized subconstant o(1) per operation if M >> N) mostly at the bottom of the tree. Therefore, CBTree gracefully supports concurrency.

Joint work with: Yehuda Afek, Haim Kaplan, Boris Korenfeld, Robert E. Tarjan
