Merge Sort MultiThreading in C#; multithreaded

Merge Sort
Please find the source code for merge sort algorithm. I have made this implementation on my own after taking this class https://class.coursera.org/algo-006/lecture/2
I will appreciate any comment that you have.

Relaunching with a course on Design and Analysis of Algorithms from Stanford via Coursera
I will be relaunching this blog in sync with my quarter goal. I am working as an Assoc Software Engineer with Bentley Systems, which is a leading company in AEC infrastructure support. I love being there with all the people. As a part of my career growth i have participated in a MOOC course on Algorithms from Stanford via coursera. I plan to share two posts per week on what i have learned from that course.
Have a great weekend and keep following ;)
PS. Please find the link to this course --> https://www.coursera.org/course/algo
