Date : 03.08.2012

In addition to part I (General Handout for all courses appended to the time table), this portion
gives specific details regarding the course.

Course Number : CS C363 / IS C363


Course Title : Data Structures and Algorithms
Instructor- in - Charge : Dr. N.L.BHANU MURTHY
Instructors : Ms. Kavita Kariyam
Mr. Digambar Povar
Mr. Surender Singh Samant
Mr. Sada Siva

1. Course Objective
The main objective of this course is to introduce structures for storing, retrieving and
manipulating data. The techniques for designing data structures and their appropriateness to a
given scenario will be discussed in this course. It aims to discuss the algorithmic techniques
to solve numerous problems and also introduces the application of mathematical and
experimental techniques for analyzing the complexity of algorithms and techniques for using
such analysis in design. It also provides insight into graph search methods, graph algorithms
and complexity theory.

2. Course Pre-requisites
This course assumes familiarity with basic programming skills.

3. Course Scope
The course covers design, implementation and applications of data structures including
stacks, queues, priority queues, linked lists, hash table, heap, binary search tree, balanced
binary search tree. The course covers algorithm design techniques like Divide and Conquer,
Greedy Approach, Dynamic Programming, Backtracking, Branch & Bound for designing
algorithms using examples from sorting, searching, graph theory and real life problems as
well as techniques for analyzing the complexity of such algorithms.
