Learning Outcomes

Learning outcomes

This course aims at introducing to students the philosophy of fundamental algorithmic background and techniques. After successfully passing this course the students will be able to:

  • Understand basic algorithmic techniques
  • Analyze complex algorithms
  • Design new algorithmic tools
  • Combine already-known techniques for solving new algorithmic problems
General Competences
  • Search for, analysis and synthesis of data and information, with the use of the necessary technology
  • Working independently
  • Team work
  • Project planning and management.

Syllabus

  • Fundamental concepts of design and analysis of algorithms
  • Analysis of algorithms, Asymptotical growing functions
  • Typical running times and data structures (lists, arrays, queues, stacks)
  • Stable matching, correctness, priority queue
  • «Divide & Conquer» technique, sorting, recursive formulations
  • Graph algorithms: BFS, DFS, connectedness, topological ordering
  • Greedy algorithms: interval scheduling & shortest paths (Dijkstra)
  • Minimum spanning trees(Prim & Kruskal algorithms), Huffman coding
  • Dynamic programming: maximum flow, interval scheduling, and Knapsack
  • Further Topics: computational complexity and ΝΡ-completeness.
