This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Third Workshop on Combinatorial and Algorithmic Aspects of Networking, held in Chester, UK in July 2006, co-located with the 13th Colloquium on Structural Information and Communication Complexity, SIROCCO 2006.The 10 revised full papers and one invited lecture cover a range from the Web graph to game theory to string matching, all in the context of large-scale networks.
Complexity Theory : Exploring the Limits of Efficient Algorithms
Complexity theory is the theory of determining the necessary resources for the solution of algorithmic problems and, therefore, the limits of what is possible with the available resources. An understanding of these limits prevents the search for non-existing efficient algorithms. This textbook considers randomization as a key concept and emphasizes the interplay between theory and practice: New branches of complexity theory continue to arise in response to new algorithmic concepts, and its results - such as the theory of NP-completeness - have influenced the development of all areas of computer science. The topics selected have implications for concrete applications, and the significance of complexity theory for today's computer science is stressed throughout.
