GPU-based sorting algorithms have emerged as a crucial area of research due to their ability to harness the immense parallel processing power inherent in modern graphics processing units. By ...

In this module the student will learn the very basics of algorithms through three examples: insertion sort (sort an array in ascending/descending order); binary search: search whether an element is ...

In this article, we present the bubble sort and merge sort algorithms. We discuss the cycle counts of these algorithms on the Blackfin processor, and show how to reduce the cycle count of the bubble ...

An algorithm used trillions of times a day around the world could run up to 70 per cent faster, thanks to an artificial intelligence created by UK-based firm DeepMind. It has found an improved way for ...

We start with how sorting algorithms work. Although you don’t need to implement sorting algorithms yourself, it’s useful to know how they work internally. You can skip to the next section if you just ...

We’re suckers for the kind of “life hacks” that tell you that you’ve been doing some relatively mundane task all wrong, and that there’s a super-easy alternative which can massively speed up your ...
