Optimal Aggregation Algorithms for Middleware
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...

Optimal Randomized Algorithms for Local Sorting and Set-Maxima
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...

Sorting and Selection on Distributed Memory Bus Computers
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...

A Randomized Sorting Algorithm on the BSP model
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...

Work-Time Optimal K-Merge Algorithms on the PRAM
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...
