TL;DR: A new method for entering and retrieving information in a hash table is described, intended to be efficient if most entries are looked up several times.
Abstract: A new method for entering and retrieving information in a hash table is described. The method is intended to be efficient if most entries are looked up several times. The expected number of probes to look up an entry, predicted theoretically and verified by Monte Carlo experiments, is considerably less than for other comparable methods if the table is nearly full. An example of a possible Fortran implementation is given.
