Description for Design and Analysis of Approximation Algorithms (Springer Optimization and Its Applications, Vol. 62)
Hardcover. Unlike other books on theoretical computer science, this textbook organizes approximation algorithms into chapters based on the design techniques for the algorithms. This allows the reader to study approximation algorithms of the same nature together. Series: Springer Optimization and its Applications. Num Pages: 452 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBU; UMB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 240 x 161 x 29. Weight in Grams: 806.
This book is intended to be used as a textbook for graduate students studying theoretical computer science. It can also be used as a reference book for researchers in the area of design and analysis of approximation algorithms. Design and Analysis of Approximation Algorithms is a graduate course in theoretical computer science taught widely in the universities, both in the United States and abroad. There are, however, very few textbooks available for this course. Among those available in the market, most books follow a problem-oriented format; that is, they collected many important combinatorial optimization problems and their approximation algorithms, and ...

Reviews for Design and Analysis of Approximation Algorithms (Springer Optimization and Its Applications, Vol. 62)
From the reviews: “This book is intended for graduate courses of different levels, and course plans based on different chapter selections are proposed. Each chapter is accompanied by several pages of exercises and historical notes, setting the material and the references in context. The comprehensive bibliography covers a huge amount of literature in the heuristics and approximations area, as ... Read more
