Abstract
A current key is received at a current arrival time at a computer. An index in an array corresponding to the current key is determined using a hash function. A previous key and a previous arrival time are retrieved from the array at the index. The array is transformed by replacing the previous key and the previous arrival time with the current key and the current arrival time in the array at the index. The previous key and the previous arrival time are inserted into a nearest eligible sequential index in the array.
