Detailed Description

Calendar Queue Implementation.

Classical Calendar Queue implementation. It is an array of lists of events which reorganizes itself upon each insertion/deletion, ensuring amortized O(1) operations.

Due to the nature of the calendar queue, you cannot insert events which "happen before" the last extracted events, otherwise the list breaks and starts returning dummy events.

For a thorough description of the algorithm, refer to:

R. Brown “Calendar Queues: A Fast 0(1) Priority Queue Implementation for the Simulation Event Set Problem” CACM, Vol. 31, No. 10, pp. 1220-1227, Oct. 1988.
