  2. Maximal munch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximal_munch

    The term is also used in compilers in the instruction selection stage to describe a method of "tiling" — determining how a structured tree representing a program in an intermediate language should be converted into linear machine code. An entire subtree might be converted into just one machine instruction, and the problem is how to split the ...

  3. Greedy algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm

    The matching pursuit is an example of a greedy algorithm applied on signal approximation. A greedy algorithm finds the optimal solution to Malfatti's problem of finding three disjoint circles within a given triangle that maximize the total area of the circles; it is conjectured that the same greedy algorithm is optimal for any number of circles.

  4. Local search (constraint satisfaction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_search_(constraint...

    The new assignment is close to the previous one in the space of assignment, hence the name local search. All local search algorithms use a function that evaluates the quality of assignment, for example the number of constraints violated by the assignment. This amount is called the cost of the assignment. The aim of local search is that of ...

  5. Optimal substructure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_substructure

    Typically, a greedy algorithm is used to solve a problem with optimal substructure if it can be proven by induction that this is optimal at each step. [1] Otherwise, provided the problem exhibits overlapping subproblems as well, divide-and-conquer methods or dynamic programming may be used. If there are no appropriate greedy algorithms and the ...

  6. Greedy randomized adaptive search procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_randomized_adaptive...

    The greedy randomized adaptive search procedure (also known as GRASP) is a metaheuristic algorithm commonly applied to combinatorial optimization problems. GRASP typically consists of iterations made up from successive constructions of a greedy randomized solution and subsequent iterative improvements of it through a local search . [ 1 ]

  7. List scheduling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_scheduling

    List scheduling is a greedy algorithm for Identical-machines scheduling.The input to this algorithm is a list of jobs that should be executed on a set of m machines. The list is ordered in a fixed order, which can be determined e.g. by the priority of executing the jobs, or by their order of arrival.

  8. Outline of computer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Outline_of_computer_programming

    Programming involves activities such as analysis, developing understanding, generating algorithms, verification of requirements of algorithms including their correctness and resources consumption, and implementation (commonly referred to as coding [1] [2]) of algorithms in a target programming language.

  9. C syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_syntax

    A snippet of C code which prints "Hello, World!". The syntax of the C programming language is the set of rules governing writing of software in C. It is designed to allow for programs that are extremely terse, have a close relationship with the resulting object code, and yet provide relatively high-level data abstraction.
