Abstract
We show that by folding data from an n×n mesh onto an n×(n/k) submesh, sorting on the submesh, and finally unfolding back onto the entire n×n mesh it is possible to sort on bidirectional and strict unidirectional meshes using a number of routing steps that is very close to the distance lower bound for these architectures
