Batcher odd–even mergesort is a parallel sorting algorithm designed for efficient sorting of data using a network-based approach. It is particularly suited for use in parallel architectures, where multiple processors can work simultaneously on different parts of the data. ### Overview of Batcher odd–even mergesort 1. **Batcher Sorting Network**: The algorithm is named after Kenneth E. Batcher, who developed sorting networks. The Batcher odd–even mergesort utilizes a specific pattern of sorting and merging.
