Based on a lecture course given at Chalmers University, this book is ideal for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students. The author first develops the necessary background in probability theory before applying it to study a range of randomised algorithms that have important applications in computing. This book will appeal not only to mathematicians, but to students of computer science who will find much here that appeals. This is a clear and concise introduction to this...
More DescriptionBased on a lecture course given at Chalmers University, this book is ideal for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students. The author first develops the necessary background in probability theory before applying it to study a range of randomised algorithms that have important applications in computing. This book will appeal not only to mathematicians, but to students of computer science who will find much here that appeals. This is a clear and concise introduction to this subject and the numerous exercises included will help students to deepen their understanding.
