Abstract
A new fault detection algorithm for bitonic sorting networks is proposed. A single fault on the comparison elements or links can be detected and diagnosed by inserting O(log2N) sets of testing vectors. The basic testing vectors consist basically of subsets and combinations of ascending (0,1,2,3,) and descending (...,3,2,1,0, i.e., reverse) identify vectors
