The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

Sorting is a fundamental operation underpinning a wide array of computational tasks, from database indexing and network packet scheduling to real-time signal processing. Traditional CPU-based sorting ...

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 ...
