3. Dining philosophers problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dining_philosophers_problem

   In computer science, the dining philosophers problem is an example problem often used in concurrent algorithm design to illustrate synchronization issues and techniques for resolving them. It was originally formulated in 1965 by Edsger Dijkstra as a student exam exercise, presented in terms of computers competing for access to tape drive ...

4. P versus NP problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P_versus_NP_problem

   The P versus NP problem is a major unsolved problem in theoretical computer science. Informally, it asks whether every problem whose solution can be quickly verified can also be quickly solved. Here, quickly means an algorithm that solves the task and runs in polynomial time exists, meaning the task completion time varies as a polynomial ...

5. Recursion (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursion_(computer_science)

   In computer science, recursion is a method of solving a computational problem where the solution depends on solutions to smaller instances of the same problem. [1] [2] Recursion solves such recursive problems by using functions that call themselves from within their own code. The approach can be applied to many types of problems, and recursion ...

6. NP-completeness - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP-completeness

   As a consequence, determining whether it is possible to solve these problems quickly, called the P versus NP problem, is one of the fundamental unsolved problems in computer science today. While a method for computing the solutions to NP-complete problems quickly remains undiscovered, computer scientists and programmers still frequently ...

7. Solver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solver

   Solver. A solver is a piece of mathematical software, possibly in the form of a stand-alone computer program or as a software library, that 'solves' a mathematical problem. A solver takes problem descriptions in some sort of generic form and calculates their solution. In a solver, the emphasis is on creating a program or library that can easily ...

8. Maze-solving algorithm - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze-solving_algorithm

   Robot in a wooden maze. A maze-solving algorithm is an automated method for solving a maze.The random mouse, wall follower, Pledge, and Trémaux's algorithms are designed to be used inside the maze by a traveler with no prior knowledge of the maze, whereas the dead-end filling and shortest path algorithms are designed to be used by a person or computer program that can see the whole maze at once.

9. Heuristic (computer science) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heuristic_(computer_science)

   Heuristic (computer science) In mathematical optimization and computer science, heuristic (from Greek εὑρίσκω "I find, discover") is a technique designed for problem solving more quickly when classic methods are too slow for finding an exact or approximate solution, or when classic methods fail to find any exact solution in a search space.
