This short post announces the second public version of our parallel string sorting project. It is a test framework and algorithm collection containing most sequential and parallel string sorting implementations.
The collection includes parallel super scalar string sample sort (pS5), which we developed and showed to have the highest parallel speedups on modern single-socket multi-core shared memory systems. Additionally, the collection now contains parallel multiway LCP-mergesort, which can be used to speed up string sorting on NUMA multi-socket machines.
See the parallel-string-sorting project page for our technical report and more information about version 0.6.
