View offerings and enrolment

This course covers a large spectrum of algorithmic topics such as approximation algorithms, randomized algorithms, parallel/distributed algorithms, and online algorithms. Students will learn how to analyze the most fundamental algorithms in these areas using various techniques from graph theory, probability theory, and algebra. After successful completion of the course, students will be able to design efficient and effective algorithms for similar problems leveraging these techniques. Furthermore, students will learn about the most recent research advancements in these areas by studying current research publications.
