Learning outcomes
The subject Algoritmy II will introduce the advanced algorithmic methods and processes. The ways of graph representations and the basic graph algorithms will be explained. A part of the course also includes a summary of general techniques in algorithmic design such as recursion, divide and conquer, backtracking, dynamic programming and greedy algorithms. Also the hash tables and encription algorithms will be explained.
Students will understand more complex algorithms, they will be able to use them in their own programs designing. The will have an overview about algorithms using in operating system (file tables), computer networks (routing) and basic methods of compression.
Prerequisites
The subjet Algorithms I - UAI/686

Assessment methods and criteria
Written examination

Working out a seminar work (design of program in any programming language with a chosen algorithm), fulfillment of final written test.
