Abstract

This paper initiates the study of self-adjusting distributed data structures or networks. In particular, we present SplayNets: a binary search tree based network that is self-adjusting to the routing requests. We derive entropy bounds on the amortized routing cost and show that our splaying algorithm has some interesting properties.
