The algorithm can terminate when the insertions would be at the top and bottom of the groups, as shown. The maximum number of communication steps would be when all the numbers in the left list were initially larger than all of the numbers in the other group (a maximum of x steps with x numbers in each group). Write a parallel program to implement Fox’s method and evaluate it compared to the methods described in the text.
