Advanced Algorithms by BMS College of Engineering
This PDF deals with some advanced topics in the design of algorithms, focusing on Dynamic Programming. The application domains of DP are discussed and cover classic problems, including Matrix Chain Multiplication, that is, finding an optimal order to multiply many matrices, and Rod Cutting, which is just a typical 4-inch rod problem. Its notes include insights into the steps of DP, its recursive tree structures, and problem-solving through the bottom-up approach. The wide de-balcony of these topics helps the reader understand how DP can be applied to a variety of optimization problems and demonstrates both theoretical and practical aspects of algorithm design.

Lecture Notes On Design And Analysis Of Algorithms
Dr. Subasish Mohapatra's Lecture Notes on Design and Analysis of Algorithms, published on August 2, 2022, is a big 125-pages book to cover many of the algorithmic core ideas. It contains the core ideas such as growth of functions and recurrences, with great detail on the solving of these via substitution, recursion trees, and the Master Method. Discussion of detailed Divide and Conquer algorithms, along with worst-case running times for problems such as merge sort, quick sort, and binary search, is also covered. Heaps, heap sort, priority queues, and sorting lower bounds are discussed. Detailed discussions of dynamic programming techniques cover the matrix chain multiplication problem, longest common subsequence problem, and general strategies. Discussions of robust algorithms based on dynamic programming that cover applications such as the activity selection problem, fractional knapsack problem, and Huffman coding. It also comprises graph algorithms, for instance: BFS, DFS, minimum spanning trees, Kruskal's, and Prim's.
