Data structures and algorithms for graph and network problems, including disjoint set union, heaps, search trees, search on graphs, minimum spanning trees, shortest paths, network flows, and matchings. The intent of the course is to examine the most efficient algorithms known for a variety of combinatorial problems and to discover the principles underlying the design and analysis of these algorithms. The emphasis will be on asymptotic worst-case and amortized analysis. Prerequisite: COS 423 or equivalent.
