Is there an optimal parallel sorting algorithm for (EREW PRAM)?

Is there any way to get an inexpensive algorithm for sorting n integers with n processors for EREW PRAM ?

Yes, there is a Richard Cole algorithm called "Parallel Merge Sort" that theoretically sorts input data (not just integers) into EREW PRAM in O (log n) using O (n) processors.
