Dec 19, 2023 · This document provides an introduction to the analysis of algorithms. It discusses algorithm specification, performance analysis frameworks, and asymptotic notations used to analyze algorithms. Key aspects covered include time complexity, space complexity, worst-case analysis, and average-case analysis.

These are a revised version of the lecture slides that accompany the textbook Algorithm Design by Jon Kleinberg and Éva Tardos. Here are the original and official version of the slides , distributed by Pearson .

Stages of Problem Solving • Understanding the problem • Planning an algorithm • Designing an algorithm • Validating and verifying an algorithm • Analyzing an algorithm • Implementing an algorithm • Performing empirical analysis (if necessary)

Feb 27, 2020 · This document provides an introduction to algorithm analysis and design. It defines what an algorithm is and lists some key properties it should have like being unambiguous, having a finite number of steps, and terminating. It discusses different ways to specify algorithms using natural language, flowcharts, or pseudocode.
