phonetic coding
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Code a string based on how it is pronounced.
k-way merge
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Combine k sorted data streams into a single sorted stream.
multiway merge
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Combine more than two sorted data streams into a single sorted stream.
merge
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Combine two or more sorted sequences of data into a single sorted sequence. Formal Definition: For simplicity, let input be two sequences, A=(a 1 , ..., a n ) and B=(b 1 , ..., b m ), each ...
bitonic sort
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Compare, and swap if necessary, pairs of elements in parallel. Subsets are sorted then merged.
Batcher sort
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Compare, and swap if necessary, pairs of elements in parallel. Subsets are sorted then merged.
quantum computation
Computer science; Algorithms & data structures
Computation based on quantum mechanical effects, such as superposition and entanglement, in addition to classical digital manipulations.
