Funded Activity Summary

Efficient Algorithms for In-memory Sorting, Searching and Indexing on Modern Multi-core Cache-based and Graphics Processor Architectures. This project clearly belongs to one of the national research priority goals, Smart Information Use. The copy-based techniques and work on sorting and searching will considerably impact the development of in-memory algorithms in cutting-edge computer architectures. Efficient suffix trees and suffix sorting have myriad applications in string-processing and will be of high interest to bioinformatics companies. The sortdex project will develop novel algorithms that will be used by enterprise search engine companies to develop applications for libraries and organisations dealing with large databases. Algorithms using the graphics processor as a co-processor have important applications in the high-growth field of computer graphics and games.
