Abstract :
We present deterministic algorithms for k-k routing and k-k sorting on circular processor arrays with bidirectional connections. We distinguish between cases where k<4, 4⩽k<n2, and k⩾n2. Standing results are considerably improved; for most problem instances, near-optimality is achieved. A very simple algorithm has good performance for dynamic routing problems
