Synopsis:

Big-O notation. Algorithms with numbers - cryptography, universal hashing, divide-and-conquer algorithms, recurrence relations, the fast Fourier transform. Sorting algorithms - mergesort, insert sort, selection sort, heap sort, quick sort. Graphs - depth-first search in undirected graph, depth-first search in directed graphs, strongly connected components. Paths in graphs - distances, breadth-first search, lengths on edges, Dijkstra's algorithm, Priority queue implementations, Shortest paths in the presence of negative edges, shortest paths in dags. Greedy algorithms - minimum spanning trees, Huffman encoding, Horn formulas.

Requirements:

The course strongly assumes prior knowledge on level of course Algorithms 1.

For the Exams: knowledge prescribed in lectures. The exam has a practical and oral parts. The practical part of the exam - write and debug a simple program on given task.

For Assessment, the student receies three tasks to program.

Syllabus of lectures:

Mathematical algorithms - multiplication of two matrices, the greatest common divisor, the least common multiple ( LCM ) , Euclid's algorithm.

Factorial, recursion, factorization.

Divide-and-conquer algorithms, recurrence relations, the fast Fourier transform.

Sorting algorithms - mergesort, insert sort, selection sort, heap sort, quick sort.

Graphs and graph algorithms - terminology, notation , theory, breadth-first search , BFS, depth-first search , DFS, minimum spanning tree.

Paths in graphs - distances, breadth-first search, lengths on edges, Dijkstra's algorithm, priority queue implementations, shortest paths in the presence of negative edges, shortest paths in dags. Greedy algorithms - minimum spanning trees, Huffman encoding, Horn formulas.

Search in text - terminology, Hamming distance, trivial algorithm, KMP.

Cryptography - historical ciphers, search primes, factorization, symmetric ciphers.

Syllabus of tutorials:

Introduction into running applications in 308 laboratory, students' accounts, students will be submitted 3 practical excercises to solve.

Simple application. Constants. Simple types, structured types incl. arrays, records, sets, files. Variables. Basics of programming language.

Sorting. Handling events and exceptions.

Printing from Java applications, I/O operations.
