Title
Significant improvements to the Ford-Johnson algorithm for sorting
Abstract
For almost twenty years, the Ford-Johnson algorithm for sortingt items using comparisons was believed to be optimal. Recently, Manacher was able to show that the Ford-Johnson algorithm is not optimal for certain ranges of values oft. In this paper, we present some new algorithms which achieve much stronger results compared to Manacher's algorithms.
