Abstract
This paper presents the construction of a new recirculating bitonic sorting network which reduces the O(Nlog2N) cost complexity of the original bitonic sorting network to O(NlogN) while preserving the well known time complexity of O(log2N). Network communication is reduced by one half by leaving the N/2 even-parity keys in the local memory of each comparator
