About the Course

he Analysis and Design of Algorithms (ADA) course provides students with a comprehensive understanding of algorithmic problem-solving techniques and the mathematical foundations required to analyze algorithm efficiency. The course introduces various algorithm design paradigms such as brute force, divide and conquer, decrease and conquer, transform and conquer, dynamic programming, greedy methods, backtracking, branch and bound, and approximation algorithms. Students learn to evaluate algorithms using asymptotic analysis, compare alternative solutions, and select efficient approaches for solving computational problems. The course also explores complexity theory, including P, NP, and NP-Complete problems, enabling students to understand the limitations of algorithmic computation and develop effective strategies for tackling complex real-world problems.
