Instructional method and Pedagogy


 At the start of course, the course delivery pattern, prerequisite of the subject will be
discussed.
 Lectures will be conducted with the aid of multi-media projector, black board, OHP
etc.
 Attendance is compulsory in lecture which carries 10 marks in overall evaluation.
 One internal exam will be conducted as a part of internal theory evaluation.
 Assignments based on the course content will be given to the students for each unit
and will be evaluated at regular interval evaluation.
 Surprise tests/Quizzes/Seminar/tutorial will be conducted having a share of five marks
in the overall internal evaluation.
 The course includes a laboratory,where students have an opportunity to build an
appreciation for the concepts being taught in lectures.
 Experiments shall be performed in the laboratory related to course contents.

Learning Outcome
On successful completion of the course, the student will:

 Be able to check the correctness of algorithms using inductive proofs and loop
invariants.
 Be able to compare functions using asymptotic analysis and describe the relative
merits of worst-, average-, and best-case analysis.
 Be able to solve recurrences using the master, the iteration, and the substitution
method.
 Become familiar with a variety of sorting algorithms and their performance
characteristics (eg, running time, stability, space usage) and be able to choose the best
one under a variety of requirements.
 Be able to understand and identify the performance characteristics of fundamental
algorithms and data structures and be able to trace their operations for problems such
as sorting, searching, selection, operations on numbers, polynomials and matrices, and
graphs.
 Explain the major graph algorithms and their analyses. Employ graphs to model
engineering problems, when appropriate. Synthesize new graph algorithms and
algorithms that employ graph computations as key components, and analyze them.
 Be able to use the design techniques introduced i.e. dynamic programming, greedy
algorithm etc. to design algorithms for more complex problems and analyze their
performance.
 Become familiar with the major graph algorithms and their analyses. Employ graphs
to model engineering problems, when appropriate.
