(3-0-2) 4

Content: 

Models of computation, algorithm analysis and asymptotic notation, time and space complexity, average and worst case analysis, lower bounds. Amortized analysis. Algorithm design techniques: recursion, branch-and-bound, divide and conquer, greedy, dynamic programming, randomization. Applications of the above techniques to a variety of problems: Stable matching, linear- time selection, integer, polynomial and matrix multiplications, Fast Fourier Transforms (FFT): FFT Algorithms, computing shortest paths and minimum spanning trees, etc. Reductions and the theory of NP Completeness, Approximation algorithms.
