The goal of this course is the deeper understanding of the design and analysis of algorithms and address specific classes of problems and algorithms to solve them as well as the introduction of students to critical thinking and research process. A detailed examination of advanced methods of analysis and design of algorithms is done during the course. The analysis of an algorithm studies ways of finding its complexity. For the design of an algorithm for a problem we discuss basic design methods such as: greedy methods, dynamic programming, backtracking, recursion, exhaustive search of solution space, and branch and bound. We examine algorithms for problem categories such as sorting, searching, selection, graphs processing, integers and polynomials arithmetic, algorithms in matrices, and string handling algorithms. Complexity classes such as P, NP, NP-complete are defined. Some specific topics are also presented. After completing the course the student:
