at the IEEE Symposium on Foundations of Computer Science, a trio of present and past MIT graduate students won a best-student-paper award for a new "cutting-plane" algorithm, a general-purpose ...

There is always more than one way to implement a standard algorithm ... count occurrence algorithm. The purpose of this revision guide is not to show in depth examples of how to create and ...

Abstract: In the early days of computer science, the community settled on a simple standard model of computing and a basic canon of general purpose algorithms ... the development of elegant algorithms ...

The purpose of this course is to explore collective decision making from an algorithmic point of view. We study settings where groups of agents need to make a joint decision by aggregating preferences ...
