Algorithmics for Hard Problems

Algorithmic design, especially for hard problems, is more essential for success in solving them than any standard improvement of current computer technologies. Because of this, the design of algorithms for solving hard problems is the core of current algorithmic research from the theoretical point of view as weIl as from the practical point of view. There are many general textbooks on algorithmics, and several specialized books devoted to particular approaches such as local search, randomization
