A portable implementation of the radix sort algorithm in OpenCL
Philippe Helluy · HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe) · 2011
We present a portable OpenCL implementation of the radix sort algorithm. We test it on several GPUs or CPUs in order to assess its good performances on different hardware. We also apply our implementation to the Particle-In-Cell (PIC) sorting, which is useful in plasma physics simulations.
