Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) A sorting algorithm, called Map Sort, is proposed for multi-core processors. The proposed algorithm uses a map from subsets of input data to intervals in data range. Using the map, our algorithm is executed in parallel with multiple CPUs and has 0((N/P) log N) time complexity for N data and P CPUs. Experimental results show that, in comparison with quick sort on a single CPU, processing time of Map Sort is comparable on a single CPU and three times faster on four CPUs.
