  Traversal Speed Comparison of BFS and DFS in Balanced and Skewed Binary Trees

  By Anand Singh, Abhinav Singh, Padma Mishra

  Abstract: In this paper, we provide an analysis of how well both breadth-first search (BFS) and depth-first search (DFS) algorithms perform while wandering through two kinds of binary trees: balanced and skewed. The research was motivated by the practical application of storing files and directories in a certain type of parent-child relationship through the use of hierarchical file systems (e.g., windows explorer). The result of measuring how fast and versatilely these …
