Summary: | 1. Field of the Invention
A method for accelerated sorting of data based on data format, wherein the format is determined from known, derived or empirical characteristics indicating whether the data is an unordered format, a partially ordered format, or a fully ordered format. Information used in making these determinations may include the receipt of an indicator from the sending process (e.g., indicating the type of platform used by the sending process, the type of sending process, the type of data transmitted by the sending process, etc.), or the received data itself, or a tracing or trending analysis performed on the received data, or some other information. When such situations are recognized, the receiver process alters its processing, so that more efficient sorting methods are selected and used, or so that no sorting is performed. |
