Performance Comparison between Merge and Quick Sort Algorithms in Data Structure

Performance Analysis of Merge Sort and Quick Sort: MQSORT

Sorting is considered as a fundamental operation in computer science as it is used as an intermediate step in many operations. Sorting refers to the operation of arranging data in some given order such as increasing or decreasing, with numerical data, or alphabetically, with character data. An algorithm is any well-defined procedure or set of instructions, that takes some input in the form of s...

MQ Sort an Innovative Algorithm using Quick Sort and Merge Sort

Sorting is a commonly used operation in computer science. In addition to its main job of arranging lists or arrays in sequence, sorting is often also required to facilitate some other operation such as searching, merging and normalization or used as an intermediate operation in other operations. A sorting algorithm consists of comparison, swap, and assignment operations[1-3]. There are several ...

Merge Sort

Bingheng Wang Dept. of Computer Science Florida Institute of Technology Melbourne FL 32904 [email protected] ABSTRACT Given a list of elements, we rearrange the list with ascending or descending order. So far the existing approaches involve Bubble Sort, Insertion Sort, Selection Sort ( respectively in worst case) performing slow. Now we introduce a new algorithm Merge Sort to solve the problem ...
