Learning Outcomes

Participants of the module * know the approach of parameterized complexity analysis for solving NP-hard computational problems, * are able to design and analyse parameterized algorithms, and * can use complexity-theoretic methods to determine the limits of parameterized algorithmics. The course is principally designed to impart: technical skills 50%, method skills 50%, system skills 0%, social skills 0%

Content

Particular topics include * algorithms for exactly solving NP-hard optimization problems by exploiting important problem parameters such as solution size * NP-hard computational problems on graphs and networks and on strings * algorithmic techniques such as preprocessing by data reduction, depth-bounded search trees, color coding, iterative compression, tree decomposition of graphs
