LeetCode 1606 | Find Servers That Handled Most Requests | Java | Hard | TreeSet | CodeByTushu
Description: π Welcome Back to CodeByTushu!
In todayβs video, we solve LeetCode 1606 β Find Servers That Handled Most Number of Requests using TreeSet, PriorityQueue and Simulation in Java.
We are given k servers numbered 0 to k - 1 and two integer arrays arrival and load representing the arrival times and execution durations of n requests. Each server has infinite computing capacity but can only process at most one request at any given time. Requests are dispatched cyclically starting from index (i modulo k). If that server is busy, the request searches for the next available server wrapping around to 0, and if all k servers are currently busy, the request is permanently dropped. Our goal is to identify and return all busiest server IDs that handled the maximum number of requests.
We implement an optimal event-driven simulation using a dual-structure engine. We maintain available servers inside a self-balancing binary search tree (TreeSet in Java) to execute logarithmic ceiling lookups with wrap-around fallback, while running tasks are tracked in a min-priority queue ordered by completion timestamp.
π₯ Problem Highlights
β Event-driven simulation driven by request arrival order and completion timestamps
β Dual-structure architecture combining a TreeSet available pool with a Min-Heap busy queue
β Logarithmic cyclic lookup using ceiling(i modulo k) with first() wrap-around fallback
β Batch server release mechanism freeing all tasks completed on or before current arrival time
β High-load capacity management dropping incoming requests when all k servers are occupied
β Optimal O((K + N) log K) runtime with strictly O(K) auxiliary space independent of N

π¬ Question of the Day
Why do we use a TreeSet (or dual min-heaps) rather than a simple queue or list for available servers?
1οΈβ£ To sort requests by arrival time
2οΈβ£ To find the next available cyclic server ID greater than or equal to (i modulo k) in O(log k) time
3οΈβ£ To automatically drop requests when load is too high
4οΈβ£ To calculate total processing duration across all servers
