Usually, we specify the complexity of an algorithm using the notation O(.), which indicate 'the order of'. For example, the complexity of sorting N numbers using the bubble sort method is O(N2) and ...

Cycle counts of Bubble Sort vs. Merge Sort In Figure 1, we illustrate the sorting of eight numbers (i.e., N = 8) in ascending order using the bubble sort method and the merge sort method. As we ...

In recent years with the advent of programming techniques, parallel programming consumes less execution time as compared to sequential. The odd-even merge sort algorithm was developed by K.E. Batcher.
