Experimental and Analytical Analysis of Sorting Algorithms Error Criticality for HPC and Large Servers Applications

In this paper, we investigate neutron-induced errors in three implementations of sort algorithms (QuickSort, MergeSort, and RadixSort) executed on modern graphics processing units designed for high-performance computing and large server applications. We measure the radiation-induced error rate of sort algorithms taking advantage of the neutron beam available at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Cente...
