Abstract

Two novel variations on sample sort, one using only two rounds of regular all-to-all personalized communication in a scheme that yields very good load balancing with virtually no overhead and another using regular sampling for choosing splitters, were studied. The two were coded in Split-C and were run on a variety of platforms. Results were consistent with theoretical analysis and illustrated the scalability and efficiency of the algorithms.
