This book is intended to be used as a textbook for graduate
students studying theoretical computer science. It can also be used
as a reference book for researchers in the area of design and
analysis of approximation algorithms. Design and Analysis of
Approximation Algorithms is a graduate course in theoretical
computer science taught widely in the universities, both in the
United States and abroad. There are, however, very few textbooks
available for this course. Among those available in the market,
most books follow a problem-oriented format; that is, they
collected many important combinatorial optimization problems and
their approximation algorithms, and organized them based on the
types, or applications, of problems, such as geometric-type
problems, algebraic-type problems, etc. Such arrangement of
materials is perhaps convenient for a researcher to look for the
problems and algorithms related to his/her work, but is difficult
for a student to capture the ideas underlying the various
algorithms. In the new book proposed here, we follow a more
structured, technique-oriented presentation. We organize
approximation algorithms into different chapters, based on the
design techniques for the algorithms, so that the reader can study
approximation algorithms of the same nature together. It helps the
reader to better understand the design and analysis techniques for
approximation algorithms, and also helps the teacher to present the
ideas and techniques of approximation algorithms in a more unified
way.
