Self-Adjusting Binary Search Trees: What Makes Them Tick?

Splay trees (Sleator and Tarjan [8]) satisfy the so-called access lemma. Many of the nice properties of splay trees follow from it. What makes self-adjusting binary search trees (BSTs) satisfy the access lemma? We propose a global view of BST algorithms, which allows us to identify general structural properties of algorithms that satisfy the access lemma. As an application of our techniques, we...

The Foamy Virus Gag Proteins: What Makes Them Different?

Gag proteins play an important role in many stages of the retroviral replication cycle. They orchestrate viral assembly, interact with numerous host cell proteins, engage in regulation of viral gene expression, and provide the main driving force for virus intracellular trafficking and budding. Foamy Viruses (FV), also known as spumaviruses, display a number of unique features among retroviruses...
