Like a sorting network but it can merge two locallysorted lists into a globally sorted list. More specifically, bitonic sort can be modelled as a type of sorting network. Two bitonic sequences where the numbers in one sequence are all less than all numbers in the other sequence. Runs on openmpi cpu clusters requires boostmpi node partners are calculated using a.

A bitonic sequence is a sequence of numbers x0, x1. It uses methods sortup, sortdown, mergeup, and mergedown, to sort into ascending order or descending order and to recursively merge into ascending or descending order.
