Graph Theory for Computer Science
by Manikandan Rajagopal, Ramkumar Sivasakthivel, Joseph Varghese Kureethara, Niranjanamurthy M., Biswadip Basu Mallik
Overview
This book is a vital resource for anyone looking to understand the essential role of graph theory as the unifying thread that connects and provides innovative solutions across a wide spectrum of modern computer science disciplines.
Graph theory is a traditional mathematical discipline that has evolved as a basic tool for modeling and analyzing the complex relationships between different technological landscapes. Graph theory helps explain the semantic and syntactic relationships in natural language processing, a technology behind many businesses. Disciplinary and industry developments are seeing a major transition towards more interconnected and data-driven decision-making, and the application of graph theory will facilitate this transition. Disciplines such as parallel and distributive computing will gain insights into how graph theory can help with resource optimization and job scheduling, creating considerable change in the design and development of scalable systems. This book provides comprehensive coverage of how graph theory acts as the thread that connects different areas of computer science to create innovative solutions to modern technological problems. Using a multi-faceted approach, the book explores the fundamentals and role of graph theory in molding complex computational processes across a wide spectrum of computer science.
