Course Objective

In this course, the solution procedures will be held for the problems encountered in computer science that use matrices as data structures mostly, and the algorithms that uses these procedures, their design and analysis will be given with applications. The aim of this course is to teach the algorithmic approach for the problem literature that uses matrix representation, and to make the student to gain the knowledge and skill levels for solving the encountered new problems by using the literature.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

2   Be able to solve problems of matrix theory with algorithms.
3   Be able to solve computer science problems by using matrix algorithms concepts.
4   Be able to design efficient algorithms by using matrix theory concepts.
5   Be able to solve problems of different type of disciplines by using concepts of matrix algorithms.
