Abstract. The Parallel Disks Model (PDM) has been proposed to alleviate the I/O bottleneck that arises in the processing of massive data sets. Sorting has been extensively studied ...
We present randomized algorithms for two sorting problems. In the local sorting problem, a graph is given in which each vertex is assigned an element of a total order, and the task...
In this paper we study the problems of sorting and selection on the Distributed Memory Bus Computer (DMBC) recently introduced by Sahni. In particular we present: 1) An efficient a...
The Optical Transpose Interconnection System (OTIS) is a recently proposed model of computing that exploits the special features of both electronic and optical technologies. In th...
