This syllabus was submitted to the Rhodes College Office of Academic Affairs by the course instructor. Uploaded by Archives RSA Josephine Hill.An in-depth study of the design and analysis of advanced algorithms, including the performance tradeoffs and resources required by various algorithmic implementations. Major classes of computational problems will be identified and explored. Advanced data structures and approximation heuristics are introduced as required for solution design. Topics vary depending on the specific problems covered but will include the Master Theorem, dynamic programming, divide-and-conquer and greedy algorithms.
