ABSTRACT:
System and methods are described for sorting information records in a fast and efficient manner. The present invention is particularly useful in environments where resources, such as available memory storage, are limited. A preferred method of the present invention includes scanning the field of records to be sorted (e.g., from left to right), whereby the system recursively divides the records into smaller groups, as determined by the values at a current position (i.e., the location currently under examination). As the members of a group drop below a predetermined threshold value, traditional improved sorting techniques (e.g., quicksort or insertsort) may be applied to the group to complete the sort.
