Graph theory offers a rich source of problems and techniques for programming and data structure development, as well as for understanding computing theory, including NP-Completeness and polynomial reduction. A comprehensive text, Graphs, Algorithms, and Optimization features clear exposition on modern algorithmic graph theory presented in a rigorous yet approachable way. The book covers major areas of graph theory including discrete optimization and its connection to graph algorithms. The authors explore surface topology from an intuitive point of view and include detailed discussions on linear programming that emphasize graph theory problems useful in mathematics and computer science. Many algorithms are provided along with the data structure needed to program the algorithms efficiently. The book also provides coverage on algorithm complexity and efficiency, NP-completeness, linear optimization, and linear programming and its relationship to graph algorithms. Written in an accessible and informal style, this work covers nearly all areas of graph theory. Graphs, Algorithms, and Optimization provides a modern discussion of graph theory applicable to mathematics, computer science, and crossover applications.

Because of its portability and platform-independence, Java is the ideal computer programming language to use when working on graph algorithms and other mathematical programming problems. Collecting some of the most popular graph algorithms and optimization procedures, A Java Library of Graph Algorithms and Optimization provides the source code for

This introductory book treats algorithmic graph theory specifically for programmers. It explores some key ideas and basic algorithms in this large and rapidly growing field, and contains high-level and language-independent descriptions of methods and algorithms on trees, the most important type of graphs in programming and informatics. Readers are assumed to be familiar with the basics of graph theory, and programming. Audience: This volume will be of interest to researchers and specialists in programming, software engineering, data structure and information retrieval, and to mathematicians whose work involves algorithms, combinatorics, graph theory, operations research, and discrete optimization. The book can also be recommended as a text for graduate courses in computer science, electronics, telecommunications, and control engineering.
