This text contains sufficient material for a one-semester course in mathematical algorithms, for second year mathematics students. The course requires some exposure to the basic concepts of discrete mathematics, but no computing experience. The aim of this course is...
While arithmetic deals with sums, differences, products, and quotients, calculus deals with derivatives and integrals. The derivative and integral can be described in everyday language in .terms of an automobile trip. An automobile instrument panel has a speedometer...

The design of algorithms that process strings and texts goes back at least twenty five years. In particular, the last ten of those years have produced an explosion of new results. This progress is due in part to the human genome effort, to which string algorithms can...
Multiagent systems consist of multiple autonomous entities having different information and/or diverging interests. This comprehensive introduction to the field offers a computer science perspective, but also draws on ideas from game theory, economics, operations...
