Abstract. We study the problem of determining the complexity of optimal comparison-based in-place sorting when the key length, k, is not a constant. We present the first algorithm...
: The present paper makes use of factorial experiments to assess software complexity using insertion sort as a trivial example. We next propose to implement the methodology in quic...
A generalization of the heapsort algorithm is proposed. At the expense of about 50% more comparison and move operations for typical cases, the dualheap sort algorithm offers sever...
A survey of results for the problems of selection, mergingand sorting in the Randomized Parallel Comparison Tree RPCT model is given. The results indicate that while randomization ...
Abstract. The understanding of genome rearrangements is an important endeavor in comparative genomics. A major computational problem in this field is finding a shortest sequence of...
