Can Insertion Sort be parallelized efficiently? Explain why or why not.

  • Challenging due to dependencies between elements
  • Easily parallelizable with minimal dependencies
  • Not applicable
  • Parallelization depends on the dataset size
Insertion Sort faces challenges in efficient parallelization due to dependencies between elements. Each element's placement depends on the previous elements, making parallel execution challenging. While some parallelization can be achieved, it may not lead to significant speedup compared to other parallelizable sorting algorithms.
