From Merge Sort to Silicon: Why We Had to Rethink Computer Science
What if the algorithms we learned in computer science were designed for the wrong hardware? At Speedata, we're not just writing software. We're co-designing the silicon itself. When our sorting problem hit the limits of existing approaches, we walked into the room next door and worked with our chip architects to create a new solution.
