Preface
Jinho D. Choi
This is an advanced programming course in Computer Science that teaches how to design efficient structures and algorithms to process big data and methods to benchmark their performance for large-scale computing. Topics cover data structures such as priority queues, binary trees, tries, and graphs and their applications in constructing algorithms such as sorting, searching, balancing, traversing, and spanning. Advanced topics such as network flow and dynamic programming are also discussed. Throughout this course, students are expected to
Have a deep conceptual understanding of various data structures and algorithms.
Implement their conceptual understanding in a programming language.
Explore the most effective structures and algorithms for given tasks.
Properly assess the quality of their implementations.
There are topical quizzes and homework assignments that require sufficient skills in Java programming, Git version control, Gradle software project management, and scientific writing. Intermediate-level Java programming is a prerequisite of this course.
