We report the performance of NOW-Sort, a collection of sorting implementations on a Network of Workstations (NOW). We find that parallel sorting on a NOW is competitive to sortin...

Designing efficient sorting networks has been a challenging combinatorial optimization problem since the early 1960’s. The application of evolutionary computing to this problem ...
We consider the problem of sorting a permutation using a network of data structures as introduced by Knuth and Tarjan. In general the model as considered previously was restricted...
Partitioned Optical Passive Stars (POPS) network has been presented recently as a desirable model of parallel computation. Several papers have been published that address fundamen...
Abstract. We give a high-level description of some fundamental randomized and deterministic techniques for routing and sorting on xedconnection networks such as meshes, hypercubes ...
