Java Program to Perform Searching using Self-Organizing Lists

This is a java program to search an element using Self Organizing lists. A self-organizing list is a list that reorders its elements based on some self-organizing heuristic to improve average access time. The aim of a self-organizing list is to improve efficiency of linear search by moving more frequently accessed items towards the head of the list. A self-organizing list achieves near constant time for element access in the best case. A self-organizing list uses a reorganizing algorithm to adapt to various query distributions at runtime.

Here is the source code of the Java Program to Perform Searching Using Self-Organizing Lists. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
