Abstract

We develop, present, and analyze a simple, new 2-approximation algorithm for block sorting in which we use a newly introduced combinatorial structure called an ordered pair. Our algorithm achieves the best known approximation ratio of 2 , the tightest known upper bound in terms of the number of block moves needed for block sorting.
