A randomized algorithm that sorts on an N node network with constant valence in O(log N) time is given. More particularly, the algorithm sorts N items on an N-node cube-connected cycles graph, and, for some constant kappa, for all large enough ..cap alpha.., it terminates within kappa..cap alpha.. log N time probability at least 1 - N/sup -..cap alpha../.
