I am now looking at my old school assignment and want to find the solution of a question.

Which sorting method is most suitable for parallel processing?

  1. Bubble sort
  2. Quick sort
  3. Merge sort
  4. Selection sort

I guess quick sort (or merge sort?) is the answer.

Am I correct?

It is merge sort since the sorting is done on two sub arrays and they are compared and sorted at the end. these can be done in parallel
