  3. Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm

    Flowchart of using successive subtractions to find the greatest common divisor of number r and s. In mathematics and computer science, an algorithm (/ ˈ æ l ɡ ə r ɪ ð əm / ⓘ) is a finite sequence of mathematically rigorous instructions, typically used to solve a class of specific problems or to perform a computation.

  4. Monte Carlo method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_method

    Monte Carlo methods, or Monte Carlo experiments, are a broad class of computational algorithms that rely on repeated random sampling to obtain numerical results. The underlying concept is to use randomness to solve problems that might be deterministic in principle.

  5. List of algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_algorithms

    An algorithm is fundamentally a set of rules or defined procedures that is typically designed and used to solve a specific problem or a broad set of problems.. Broadly, algorithms define process(es), sets of rules, or methodologies that are to be followed in calculations, data processing, data mining, pattern recognition, automated reasoning or other problem-solving operations.

  6. Algorithmic efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_efficiency

    In computer science, algorithmic efficiency is a property of an algorithm which relates to the amount of computational resources used by the algorithm. Algorithmic efficiency can be thought of as analogous to engineering productivity for a repeating or continuous process.

  7. Local search (optimization) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_search_(optimization)

    Local search is an anytime algorithm; it can return a valid solution even if it's interrupted at any time after finding the first valid solution. Local search is typically an approximation or incomplete algorithm because the search may stop even if the current best solution found is not optimal. This can happen even if termination happens ...

  8. Monte Carlo algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_carlo_algorithm

    The complexity class BPP describes decision problems that can be solved by polynomial-time Monte Carlo algorithms with a bounded probability of two-sided errors, and the complexity class RP describes problems that can be solved by a Monte Carlo algorithm with a bounded probability of one-sided error: if the correct answer is false, the ...

    Flow Shop Ordonnancement. Flow-shop scheduling is an optimization problem in computer science and operations research.It is a variant of optimal job scheduling.In a general job-scheduling problem, we are given n jobs J 1, J 2, ..., J n of varying processing times, which need to be scheduled on m machines with varying processing power, while trying to minimize the makespan – the total length ...
