Assume that each object in a database has m grades, or scores, one for each of m attributes. For example, an object can have a color grade, that tells how red it is, and a shape g...
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...
We present a new randomized sorting algorithm on the Bulk-SynchronousParallel (BSP) model. The algorithm improves upon the parallel slack of previous algorithms to achieve optimal...

The k-merge problem, given a collection of k, (2 k n), sorted sequences of total length n, asks to merge them into a new sorted sequence. The main contribution of this work is...
