About this title

Synopsis

This volume is devoted to an important subfield of Computer Science that Knuth founded in the 1960s and still considers his main life's work. Analysis of Algorithms deals with quantitative studies of computer techniques, leading to methods for understanding and predicting the efficiency of computer programs.

About the Author

Donald E. Knuth is one of the world's pre-eminent computer scientists, whose works have had a profound influence on the subject since the publication in 1968 of the first volume of The Art of Computer Programming. Knuth created TeX, a language for typesetting mathematical and scientific texts, and METAFONT, a computer software system for alphabet design. He is professor emeritus at Stanford University.
