Megha Jain, Sanjay Kumar, V.k Patle . Bitonic Sorting Algorithm: A Review. International Journal of Computer Applications. 113, 13 ( March 2015), 40-43. DOI=10.5120/19890-1930
The Batcher`s bitonic sorting algorithm is a parallel sorting algorithm, which is used for sorting the numbers in modern parallel machines. There are various parallel sorting algorithms such as radix sort, bitonic sort, etc. It is one of the efficient parallel sorting algorithm because of load balancing property. It is widely used in various scientific and engineering applications. However, Various researches have worked on a bitonic sorting algorithm in order to improve up the performance of original batcher`s bitonic sorting algorithm. In this paper, tried to review the contribution made by these researchers.
