Abstract
Sorting a sequence of numbers is an essential task that is involved in many computing algorithms and techniques. In this paper a new sorting algorithm is proposed that has broken the O(n log n) limit of the most known sorting techniques. The algorithm is designed to sort a sequence of integer numbers and may be extended to operate with decimal numbers also. The proposed algorithm offers a speed up of nearly m+3 logn − 1, where n is the size of the list and m is the size of each element in the list. The time complexity of the algorithm may be considered linear under certain constraints that should be followed in the implementation phase, while the spatial complexity is linear too. The new algorithm was given a name of Bucket Then Binary Radix Sort as a notation for the techniques which it uses.

Comparison of Bucket Sort and RADIX Sort
Bucket sort and RADIX sort are two well-known integer sorting algorithms. This paper measures empirically what is the time usage and memory consumption for different kinds of input sequences. The algorithms are compared both from a theoretical standpoint but also on how well they do in six different use cases using randomized sequences of numbers. The measurements provide data on how good they are in different real-life situations.
Recombinant Sort: N-Dimensional Cartesian Spaced Algorithm Designed from Synergetic Combination of Hashing, Bucket, Counting and Radix Sort
Sorting is an essential operation which is widely used and is fundamental to some very basic day to day utilities like searches, databases, social networks and much more. Optimizing this basic operation in terms of complexity as well as efficiency is cardinal. Optimization is achieved with respect to space and time complexities of the algorithm. In this paper, a novel left-field N-dimensional cartesian spaced sorting method is proposed by combining the best characteristics of bucket sort, counting sort and radix sort, in addition to employing hashing and dynamic programming for making the method more efficient. Comparison between the proposed sorting method and various existing sorting methods like bubble sort, insertion sort, selection sort, merge sort, heap sort, counting sort, bucket sort, etc., has also been performed. The time complexity of the proposed model is estimated to be linear i.e. ( ) for the best, average and worst cases, which is better than every sorting algorithm introduced till date.
RADIX SORT WITH REDUCED TIME COMPLEXITY
Sorting is a technique that arranges data in a specific order, so that they can be accessed easily. Radix sort is one of the techniques. Processors execute programs as per the definition of codes. Time of execution depends on the design of the program. Complex programs take more time of execution. This technical paper explains radix sort algorithm that has been made simpler to reduce time complexity.

Buffered Adaptive Radix - a fast, stable sorting algorithm that trades speed for space at runtime when needed.1
2000
This paper introduces Buffered Adaptive Radix (BARsort) that adds two improvements to the well known right-to-left Radix sorting algorithm (Right Radix or just Radix). The first improvement, the adaptive part, is that the size of the sorting digit is adjusted according to the maximum value of the elements in the array. This makes BARsort somewhat faster than ordinary 8-bit Radix
VRF: A Novel Algorithm for optimized Sorting
An algorithm is a well-defined way that takes some input in the form of certain values, processes them and gives certain values as output. Although there is a large variety of sorting algorithms, sorting problem has appealed a great deal of research; because effective sorting is important to enhance the use of other algorithms.A novel sorting algorithm namely " V-Re-Fr (VRF) Sorting Algorithm " is proposed to address the limitations of the current popular sorting algorithms. The goal of this paper is to propose a new algorithm which will provide improved functionality and reduce algorithm complexities. The observations backed by literature survey indicates that proposed algorithm is much more efficient in terms of number of swaps or iterations than the other algorithms having O(n2) complexity, like insertion, selection and bubble sort algorithms.
A full parallel radix sorting algorithm for multicore processors
2011
The problem addressed in this paper is that we want to sort an integer array a [] of length n on a multi core machine with k cores. Amdahl’s law tells us that the inherent sequential part of any algorithm will in the end dominate and limit the speedup we get from parallelisation of that algorithm. This paper introduces PARL, a parallel left radix sorting algorithm for use on ordinary shared memory multi core machines, that has just one simple statement in its sequential part. It can be seen as a major rework of the Partitioned Parallel Radix Sort (PPR) that was developed for use on a network of communicating machines with separate memories. The PARL algorithm, which was developed independently of the PPR algorithm, has in principle some of the same phases as PPR, but also many significant differences as described in this paper. On a 32 core server, a speedup of 5-12 times is achieved compared with the same sequential ARL algorithm when sorting more than 100 000 numbers and half that...
In-place associative integer sorting
A novel integer value-sorting technique is proposed replacing bucket sort, distri-bution counting sort and address calculation sort family of algorithms. It requires only constant amount of additional memory. The technique is inspired from one of the ordinal theories of "serial order in behavior" and explained by the analogy with the three main stages in the formation and retrieval of memory in cognitive neuroscience namely (i) practicing, (ii) storing and (iii) retrieval. Although not suitable for integer rank-sorting where the problem is to put an array of elements into ascending or descending order by their numeric keys, each of which is an integer, the technique seems to be efficient and applicable to rank-sorting, as well as other problems such as hashing, searching, element distinction, succinct data structures, gaining space, etc.
A Novel In-Place Sorting Algorithm with O(n log z) Comparisons and O(n log z) Moves
2008
In-place sorting algorithms play an important role in many fields such as very large database systems, data warehouses, data mining, etc. Such algorithms maximize the size of data that can be processed in main memory without input/output operations. In this paper, a novel in-place sorting algorithm is presented. The algorithm comprises two phases; rearranging the input unsorted array in place, resulting segments that are ordered relative to each other but whose elements are yet to be sorted. The first phase requires linear time, while, in the second phase, elements of each segment are sorted inplace in the order of z log (z), where z is the size of the segment, and O(1) auxiliary storage. The algorithm performs, in the worst case, for an array of size n, an O(n log z) element comparisons and O(n log z) element moves. Further, no auxiliary arithmetic operations with indices are required. Besides these theoretical achievements of this algorithm, it is of practical interest, because of...
Study on sorting algorithm and position determining sort
Sorting is an important task in many computer applications. Efficiency is a crucial factor when the amount of data is large. Memory allocation in operating systems, networks and databases use sorting concept. There are many ways to implementing different sorting algorithms. Though the real challenge lies in the implementation and the theoretical concept is of mere importance. The new sorting algorithm proposed uses the divide and conquer technique to increase the time efficiency. A new sorting algorithm has been put forth and its advantages and disadvantages have been discussed. The proposed algorithm is compared with other existing sorting algorithms. Finally, the possible implementations of this algorithm have been implemented.

Buffered Adaptive Radix – a fast, stable sorting algorithm that trades speed for space at runtime when needed
2007
This paper introduces Buffered Adaptive Radix (BARsort) that adds two improvements to the well known right-to-left Radix sorting algorithm (Right Radix or just Radix). The first improvement, the adaptive part, is that the size of the sorting digit is adjusted according to the maximum value of the elements in the array. This makes BARsort somewhat faster than ordinary 8-bit Radix sort (Radix8). The second and most important improvement is that data is transferred back and forth between the original array and a buffer that can be only a percentage of the size of the original array, as opposed to traditional Radix where that second array is the same length as the original array. Even though a buffer size of 100% of the original array is the fastest choice, any percentage larger than 6% gives a good to acceptable performance. This result is also explained analytically. This flexibility in memory requirement is important in programming languages such as Java where the heap size is fixed ...

The main novelties include: extremely optimized algorithm for handling tiny arrays (up to about a hundred of records) that could appear even billions times as subproblems to handle and improved processing of larger subarrays with better use of non-temporal memory stores.
Improved in-place associative integer sorting
A novel integer sorting technique was proposed replacing bucket sort, distribution counting sort and address calculation sort family of algorithms which requires only constant amount of additional memory. The technique was inspired from one of the ordinal theories of "serial order in behavior" and explained by the analogy with the three main stages in the formation and retrieval of memory in cognitive neuroscience namely (i) practicing, (ii) storing and (iii) retrieval. In this study, the technique is improved both theoretically and practically and an algorithm is obtained which is faster than the former making it more competitive. With the improved version, n integers S[0...n-1] each in the range [0, n-1] are sorted exactly in O(n) time while the complexity of the former technique was the recursion T(n) = T(n/2) + O(n) yielding T(n) = O(n).
MSL: An Efficient Adaptive In-Place Radix Sort Algorithm
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2004
This paper presents an in-place pseudo linear average case radix sorting algorithm. The proposed algorithm, MSL (Map Shuffle Loop) is a modification of the ARL algorithm. The MSL permutation loop is faster than the ARL counterpart since it searches for the root of the next permutation cycle group by group. The permutation cycle loop maps a key to its target group and shuffles the input array. The performance of MSL is compared with Java quicksort, as well as MSD and LSD radix sorting algorithms.

A Comparative Study of Sorting Algorithm Based on Their Time Complexity

Efficient Sort Using Modified Binary Search-A New Way To Sort
In a single iteration of Insertion sort, only one element is inserted to its proper position. In this technique the proper position of the item can be found using linear search algorithm starting from first element and proceed in incremental fashion. The linear search can be applied either in incremental fashion or in reversed order to find the proper position of the element in the sorted part of the array. So it takes a huge amount of time to search an item when the size of the array is very large. In the proposed technique, binary search instead of linear search is used to find the proper place of an item in the array. Binary search is applicable because the part of the array in which the new element is to be inserted is in sorted form. Similarly the average case running time is further reduced such that the new element to be inserted is first compared with last element of sorted part of the array. If it is greater than the last value of sorted part of the array, no need to perform binary search because the element is in its proper place. Similarly if the element of interest is less than last element of sorted part of the array then it is also compared with the very first element of the array. If it is less than the first element, then binary search cannot be performed and the element is inserted to the first position of the array. The proposed algorithm is compared with insertion sort, binary insertion sort and shell sort. Simulation results show that it is very efficient than other techniques.
