    Open problems around exact algorithms by Gerhard J. Woeginger, Discrete Applied Mathematics 156 (2008) 397–405. The RTA list of open problems – open problems in rewriting. The TLCA List of Open Problems – open problems in area typed lambda calculus

  3. Shape analysis (program analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape_analysis_(program...

    Unfortunately, these analysis are necessarily approximate (since a perfectly precise static analysis could solve the halting problem). Shape analysis can determine smaller (more precise) points-to sets. Consider the following simple C++ program.

  4. Backtracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backtracking

    For this class of problems, the instance data P would be the integers m and n, and the predicate F. In a typical backtracking solution to this problem, one could define a partial candidate as a list of integers c = (c[1], c[2], …, c[k]), for any k between 0 and n, that are to be assigned to the first k variables x[1], x[2], …, x[k]. The ...

  5. Virtual inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_inheritance

    Virtual inheritance is a C++ technique that ensures only one copy of a base class ' s member variables are inherited by grandchild derived classes. Without virtual inheritance, if two classes B and C inherit from a class A , and a class D inherits from both B and C , then D will contain two copies of A ' s member variables: one via B , and one ...

  6. Divide-and-conquer algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide-and-conquer_algorithm

    A divide-and-conquer algorithm recursively breaks down a problem into two or more sub-problems of the same or related type, until these become simple enough to be solved directly. The solutions to the sub-problems are then combined to give a solution to the original problem.

  7. Computational problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_problem

    A decision problem is a computational problem where the answer for every instance is either yes or no. An example of a decision problem is primality testing: "Given a positive integer n, determine if n is prime." A decision problem is typically represented as the set of all instances for which the answer is yes. For example, primality testing ...

  8. Parsons problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsons_problem

    Parsons problems are a form of an objective assessment in which respondents are asked to choose from a selection of code fragments, some subset of which comprise the problem solution. The Parsons problem format is used in the learning and teaching of computer programming .

  9. Embarrassingly parallel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embarrassingly_parallel

    "Embarrassingly" is used here to refer to parallelization problems which are "embarrassingly easy". [4] The term may imply embarrassment on the part of developers or compilers: "Because so many important problems remain unsolved mainly due to their intrinsic computational complexity, it would be embarrassing not to develop parallel implementations of polynomial homotopy continuation methods."
