Summary

This course will be concentrating on the basic graph algorithms. Learning and designing efficient algorithms for basic graph theoretic problems that are used as building blocks elsewhere (shortest paths, minimum spanning trees, matching, flows, ...). This course is concerned in models and algorithms for complex networks such as the Web, the internet, social networks and biological networks, too. The goal is to see the common structure and properties that underlie these networks.
