    Fast Sorting Algorithms on a Linear Array with a Reconfigurable Pipelined Bus System

    No full text
    We present two fast algorithms for sorting on a linear array with a recongurable pipelined bus system (LARPBS), one of the recently proposed parallel architectures based on optical buses. In our rst algorithm, we sort N numbers in O(log N log log N) worst-case time using N processors. In our second algorithm, we sort N numbers in O((log log N) 2 ) worst-case time using N 1+ processors, for any xed such that 0 < < 1. Our algorithms are based on a novel deterministic sampling scheme for merging two sorted arrays of length N each in O(log log N) time on an LARPBS with N processors. To our knowledge, the previous best sorting algorithm on this architecture has a running time of O((log N) 2 ) using N processors.
