Parallel merge sort on concurrent-read owner-write PRAM

Research output: Chapters, Conference Papers, Creative and Literary WorksRGC 32 - Refereed conference paper (with host publication)peer-review

Abstract

This paper discusses a variant of the CREW PRAM model introduced by Dymond and Ruzzo called CROW (Concurrent Read Owner Write) PRAM, in which each global memory location may only be written by its assigned owner processor. We show that CROW PRAMs can sort in O(logn) parallel time using O(n log n) processors.
