CSCI 5610 - Formal Languages and Computational Complexity

(3 credits)

Prerequisites: MATH-2710, CSCI-2210 or consent of the instructor. Problem-solving is a fundamental aspect of computer science. This course teaches students how to reduce a computational problem to its simplest form and analyze the problem to determine its inherent computational complexity. Topics include formal languages and automata theory, Turing machines, computational complexity, and the theory of NP-completeness. (irregular)
