    The splay tree is a self-adjusting binary search tree which has a good amortized performance. This paper studies some properties of top-down splay trees. Different ways to charge for the primitive operations of top-down splaying are discussed. We also give some empirical results concerning the behaviour of different top-down restructuring algorithms.
