Abstract: A new parallel sorting algorithm suitable for MIMD multiprocessors is
presented. The algorithm reduces memory and bus contention, which many
parallel sorting algorithms suffer from, by using a regular sampling of the data
to ensure good pivot selection. For n data elements to be sorted and p processors,
when n p
3
the algorithm is shown to be asymptotically optimal. In
theory, the algorithm is within a factor of two of achieving ideal load balancing.
In practice, there is almost perfect... (Update)
