Tutte Colloquium - Samuel Jaques

Title: Wires, bits, and the cost of sorting

Speaker: Samuel Jaques
Affiliation: University of Waterloo
Location: MC 5501

Abstract: How hard is it to sort a list of n integers? A basic course on algorithms says it's O(n log n) time, but what if the list is enormous - so big you would need to cover the surface of the moon just to store it?
