Dualheap Sort Algorithm: An Inherently Parallel Generalization of Heapsort
A generalization of the heapsort algorithm is proposed. At the expense of about 50% more comparison and move operations for typical cases, the dualheap sort algorithm offers sever...

Does cache sharing on modern CMP matter to the performance of contemporary multithreaded programs?
Most modern Chip Multiprocessors (CMP) feature shared cache on chip. For multithreaded applications, the sharing reduces communication latency among co-running threads, but also r...

A Model for the Effect of Caching on Algorithmic Efficiency in Radix based Sorting
— 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...
