Abstract: | A file ofn records can be sorted in linear time givenO(log(n)) processors. Four such algorithms are presented and analyzed. All of them have reasonable hardware requirements; no memory access conflicts are generated; a constant number of communication lines per processor are needed (except for one case); and the space requirements areO(n) orO(n log(log(n))). |
