A recent article reports that an Oracle patent on a fast sorting method has expired, allowing open source databases to use it freely. Mark Callaghan, the inventor behind the sorting algorithm, shows ...

In this article, we present the bubble sort and merge sort algorithms. We discuss the cycle counts of these algorithms on the Blackfin processor, and show how to reduce the cycle count of the bubble ...

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) offer a unique platform for the implementation of high-performance sorting algorithms by combining inherent parallelism with customisable hardware architectures.

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...
