Are you looking for something different in your Algorithms text? Are you looking for an Algorithms text that offers theoretical analysis techniques as well as design patterns and experimental methods for the engineering of algorithms? Michael Goodrich and Roberto Tamassia, authors of the successful, Data Structures and Algorithms in Java, 2/e, have written Algorithm Design, a text designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to the design, implementation and analysis of computer algorithms and data structures from a modern perspective.
Written for an undergraduate, junior-senior algorithms course this text offers several implementation case studies and uses Internet applications to motivate many topics such as hashing, sorting and searching.
Michael T. Goodrich is a mathematician and computer scientist. He is a Chancellor's Professor and the chair of Department of Computer Science, of Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences, a school of University of California, Irvine. Roberto Tamassia is the author of Algorithm Design: Foundations, Analysis, and Internet Examples, published by Wiley.
