In this paper, we present a proof that the bitonic sort is sound using PVS, a powerful specification and verification environment. First, we briefly introduce this well-known para...
Abstract. The understanding of genome rearrangements is an important endeavor in comparative genomics. A major computational problem in this field is finding a shortest sequence of...
Abstract. The Parallel Disks Model (PDM) has been proposed to alleviate the I/O bottleneck that arises in the processing of massive data sets. Sorting has been extensively studied ...
— This paper demonstrates that the algorithmic performance of end user programs may be greatly affected by the two or three level caching scheme of the processor, and we introduc...
Database management systems comprise various algorithms for efficiently retrieving and managing data. Typically, algorithm efficiency or performance is correlated with execution s...
