I wish there were a ready offline/download version of this one.

You can use http://www.httrack.com/ to build a local version of the site for your own use.

Thanks for the idea (and karanbhangui). I'm a little uncomfortable scraping a government website in these litigious times, so I was hoping NIST had a big PDF or something. :)

This is a great resource, but may need a bit of an update. It's missing Wavelet Trees for example.

Looks like the creator announced a plan to stop caring for the dictionary in January of 2012. FASTAR apparently agreed to take it over, but if they did it is locked behind their authentication system.

Someone should scrape and preserve.

there is tons of stuff on b+trees online but nothing there. Could easily remedy that with a small amount of work

That's an overwhelming list. Well worth a bookmark, though.

Neither detailed nor comprehensive. Most of these are just random pieces of jargon with 1-sentence explanations. They also forgot to add a bunch of really fundamental data structures too. Where are range trees? They are in like every database in existence.

I made a mirror of the website.

On behalf of FASTAR: we've updated our main page (fastar.org) to include information about the imminent migration of DADS to FASTAR.org. The site will remain open for public access.
