Hi, Recently I print out several papers about sorting algorithms. The following 3 papers are worth of reading about recent advances in sorting algorithm.
"Sorting In Linear Time?" by A. Andersson, T. Hagerup, S. Nilsson, and R. Raman (Proceedings of the 27th Annual ACM Symposium on the Theory of Computing, 1995 THE FASTEST SORTING ALGORITHM? S Nilsson - DOCTOR DOBBS JOURNAL, 2000 - ddj.com ... DDJ > Dr. Dobb's Articles > Dr. Dobb's Journal, 2000 > 0004. The Fastest Sorting Algorithm? ... Sorting n integers in time proportional to n log log n. ... Cited by 4 - Web Search - BL Direct Deterministic sorting in O (n log log n) time and linear space - group of 5 ยป Y Han - Conference Proceedings of the Annual ACM Symposium on Theory ..., 2002 - portal.acm.org Deterministic Sorting in ... This also improves previous best deterministic sorting algorithm[3, 11] which sorts in O(n log log n) time but uses O(m ) space. ... Cited by 14 - Web Search - BL Direct Last year I bought Knuth's 3rd volume "Sorting and Searching" publised in 1998, second version, but I don't understand why it doesn't mention the paper written by A. Andersson in 1995. If you look at the book, it still claims O(N*logN) timing. I haven't read these paper very carefull, just browse their titles. Basically, the new algorithm combines two original algorithms mentioned well in Knuth's book: radix sorting and merge sorting. Any comments are welcome.
