CMSC 3140 - Analysis of Algorithms

Institution:

Pennsylvania Western University

Subject:

Computer Science

Description:

This course covers algorithm analysis theory and techniques. Students learn properties of both efficient and inefficient algorithms. The importance of analyzing algorithms before implementing them will be emphasized. This course will teach the skills necessary to determine the best algorithm for a given problem. We will investigate greedy, graph theoretic, divide and conquer, and distributed algorithms. We will cover both polynomial time algorithms and NP-completeness.
