Hello,

Read this:


My new and more efficient Parallel Sort Library is here..

Here is what have changed:

My algorithm of finding the median of Parallel merge of my Parallel Sort
Library that you will find here in my website:

https://sites.google.com/site/scalable68/parallel-sort-library

Is O(log(min(|A|,|B|))), where |A| is the size of A, since the binary
search is performed within the smaller array and is O(lgN). But this new
algorithm of finding the median of parallel merge of my Parallel Sort
Library is O(log(|A|+|B|)), which is slightly worse. With further
optimizations the order was reduced to O(log(2*min(|A|,|B|))), which is
better, but is 2X more work, since both arrays may have to be searched.
All algorithms are logarithmic. Two binary searches were necessary to
find an even split that produced two equal or nearly equal halves.
Luckily, this part of the merge algorithm is not performance critical.
So, more effort can be spent looking for a better split. This new
algorithm in the parallel merge balances the recursive binary tree of
the divide-and-conquer and improve the worst-case performance of
parallel merge sort.

Thank you,
