Abstract

We describe new implementations of MSD radix sort for efficiently sorting large collections of strings. Our implementations are significantly faster than previous MSD radix sort implementations, and in fact faster than any other string sorting algorithm on several data sets. We also describe a new variant that achieves high space-efficiency at a small additional cost on runtime. © 2009 Springer Berlin Heidelberg.
