	Patience sorting - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Patience sorting is a sorting algorithm, based on a solitaire card game, that has the property of being able to efficiently compute the length of the longest increasing subsequence in a given array.
		According to D. Aldous and P. Diaconis ([1], p.417) patience sorting was first recognized as an algorithm to compute the longest increasing subsequence length by Hammersley ([2], p.362), and by A.S.C. Ross and independently Bob Floyd as a sorting algorithm.
		Longest increasing subsequences: from patience sorting to the Baik-Deift-Johansson theorem.

	Physics News Update 687
		Separations of complex biological mixtures such as the contents of a cell require biomolecules to be sorted by their size or density.
		However, diffusion-based sorting requires patience, since the particles must randomly wander over a large number of possible paths.
		In their initial demonstrations, the researchers have sorted fragments of artificial bacteria chromosomes to within 12% of their molecular weight in 10 minutes, already an order of magnitude faster than conventional methods.

	Citebase - Restricted Patience Sorting and Barred Pattern Avoidance (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Patience Sorting is a combinatorial algorithm that can be viewed as an iterated, non-recursive form of the Schensted Insertion Algorithm.
		Motivated by this and a recently formulated geometric form for Patience Sorting in terms of certain intersecting lattice paths, we study the related themes of restricted input and avoidance of similar barred permutation patterns.
		One such result is to characterize those permutations for which Patience Sorting is an invertible algorithm as the set of permutations simultaneously avoiding the barred patterns 3-1-42 and 3-1-24.

	Carburetor Internal Pressure Regulation
		I ask your patience in sorting through this rather lengthy note, and the good news is you'll find that the fix is much easier than the explanation.
		A sort of "tug-of-war" develops between the venturi (low pressure) on one end of the discharge nozzle and inlet pressure (low, but not quite as low) within the float chamber and well vent jet on the other end of the nozzle.
		If atmospheric pressure (somewhat higher than inlet pressure) is allowed to enter the float chamber and the area of the main well vent jet, the venturi will have an easier time on its end of the "tug-of-war", and a slightly richer fuel mixture will usually result.

	Sorting Hat Songs
		He was inspired by the Pearl Poet (of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Patience, and Pearl) to pen two or three fine Alliterative versions in the 14th century, and Chaucer was the model for an excellent song in the early 15th.
		The Sorting Hat song of 1999 may not have achieved quite the popularity of Professor Lee Jordon's Rap version of 2006 (anyone care to write it?) but it did make it to the footnotes of Hogwarts, A History as 'One of the only Songs in which the description of the Houses is not wholly positive.'
		The Hat knows that It, its song and the Sorting Ceremony, is all that is keeping 1,000 hungry teenagers from their Welcoming Feast.

		Despite having been introduced in 1962 by C.L. Mallows, the combinatorial algorithm Patience Sorting is only now beginning to receive significant attention due to such recent deep results as the Baik-Deift-Johansson Theorem that connect it to fields including Probabilistic Combinatorics and Random Matrix Theory.
		The aim of this work is to develop some of the more basic combinatorics of the Patience Sorting Algorithm.
		In particular, we exploit the similarities between Patience Sorting and the Schensted Insertion Algorithm in order to do things that include defining an analog of the Knuth relations and extending Patience Sorting to a bijection between permutations and certain pairs of set partitions.

		-element array with an ordering relation as an input for the sorting, consider it as a collection of cards, with the (unknown in the beginning) statistical ordering of each element serving as its index.
		Bespamyatnikh and M. Segal (, pp.3–5) give a description of an efficient implementation of the algorithm, incurring no additional asymptotic cost over the sorting one (as the back-pointers storage, creation and traversal require linear time and space).
		According to D. Aldous and P. Diaconis (, p.417) patience sorting was first recognized as an algorithm to compute the longest increasing subsequence length by Hammersley (, p.362), and by A.S.C. Ross and independently Bob Floyd as a sorting algorithm.

		With no deck of cards to handle, shuffle, deal, sort, stack, or position, there's only the point and click of a mouse pushed across a pad beside the computer's keyboard.
		Indeed, the game is sometimes called patience sorting, where patience is the British term for solitaire.
		In the end, the effort to solve a "wimpy" card-game problem--a highly simplified version of standard solitaire--led into all sorts of deep mathematics, from complex analysis to random matrix theory.

		Thus, they attack the law with exacting precision that only a scientist or engineer can understand or tolerate.

		Also, most lawyers and judges lack technical training and know little or nothing about intellectual property, particularly patents.
