Title
Integer merging on EREW PRAM
Abstract
Given two sorted arrays $${A=(a_1,a_2,\ldots ,a_{n_1})}$$ and $${B=(b_1,b_2,\ldots ,b_{n_2})}$$, where their elements are drawn from a linear range in n and n = Max(n 1, n 2). The merging of two sorted arrays is one of the fundamental problems in computer science. The main contribution of this work is to give a new merging algorithm on a EREW PRAM. The algorithm is cost optimal, deterministic and simple. The algorithm uses $${\frac{n}{\log{n}}}$$ processors and O(n) storage. We also give the conditions that make the algorithm run in a constant time on a EREW PRAM.
