| |
| − | Students will have a solid understanding of the concepts listed below. They will be able to prove many of the theorems that are central to this material. They will understand the model specifications for the optimization algorithms, and be able to recognize whether they apply to a given application or not. They will be able to perform the relevant computations on small, simple problems. They will be able to describe the optimization and approximation algorithms well enough that they could program simple versions of them, and will have a basic knowledge of the computational strengths and weaknesses of the algorithms covered.
