- New depth upper bounds for sorting networks on 27 and 28 channels improved from 14 to 13.
- The 28-channel network is constructed with reflectional symmetry by combining prefixes of 16- and 12-channel networks.
- The method involves extending networks greedily one comparator at a time and using a SAT solver for remaining layers.
