Course Objective

This course aims at equipping students with knowledge and skills to identify, analyze and asess alternatives of more advanced algorithms and data structures in developing solutions to modern engineering problems. At the end of the course students should be able to recognize limits on performance of algorithms and be able to develop practically acceptable solutions to some harder engineering problems using approximation and probability methods.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Define, implement, analyze and apply to engineering problems B-Trees, Fibonacci Heaps, van Emde Boas Trees, Disjoint Sets,
2   Define, implement, analyze and apply to engineering problems All-Pairs Shortest Path ve Maximum Flow Algorithms,
3   Define, implement, analyze and apply to engineering problems Multithreaded Algorithms, Linear Programming and Some Matrix Algorithms
4   Define, implement, analyze and apply to engineering problems Polynomial and FFT Algorithms,
5   Define performance limits of Algorithms, design and develop Approximation Algorithms, Probabilistic Algorithms to hard problems.
