Fast Parallel Sorting Algorithm Using Subsets and Quick Sort

Fast Parallel Sorting Algorithm Using Subsets and Quick Sort

— This paper presents fast parallel sorting algorithm which uses division in subsets and quick sort algorithm. The proposed algorithm is evaluated by analytic way and results shows that it will be faster than algorithm in [3] when time for division in subsets of all set is bigger than time for sending/receiving of partial subsets
