Until now, the only known algorithms for accomplishing certain tasks required an amount of space roughly proportional to their run time, and researchers had long assumed there’s no way to do better.

Complexity theorists sort problems into categories, called complexity classes, based on the resource demands of the best algorithms for solving them — that is, the algorithms that run fastest or use ...

Covers the fundamentals of algorithms and various algorithmic strategies, including time and space complexity, sorting algorithms, recurrence relations, divide and conquer algorithms, greedy ...

Will algorithms designed for interconnected computers hold up if some of the machines are not here on Earth but flying about in space, onboard satellites or spacecraft?
