Sorting using complete subintervals and the maximum number of runs in a randomly evolving sequence: Extended abstract.
We study the space requirements of a sorting algorithm where only items that at the end will be adjacent are kept together. This is equivalent to the following combinatorial problem: Consider a string of fixed length n that starts as a string of 0's, and then evolves by changing each 0 to 1, wi...
