  2. Block cellular automaton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_cellular_automaton

    A rule for shifting the partition after each time step; A transition rule, a function that takes as input an assignment of states for the cells in a single tile and produces as output another assignment of states for the same cells. In each time step, the transition rule is applied simultaneously and synchronously to all of the tiles in the ...

  3. Stable marriage problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_marriage_problem

    In a uniformly-random instance of the stable marriage problem with n men and n women, the average number of stable matchings is asymptotically ⁡. [6] In a stable marriage instance chosen to maximize the number of different stable matchings, this number is an exponential function of n. [7]

  4. Gale–Shapley algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gale–Shapley_algorithm

    The stable matching problem has also been called the stable marriage problem, using a metaphor of marriage between men and women, and many sources describe the Gale–Shapley algorithm in terms of marriage proposals. However, this metaphor has been criticized as both sexist and unrealistic: the steps of the algorithm do not accurately reflect ...

  5. Stable roommates problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stable_roommates_problem

    In mathematics, economics and computer science, particularly in the fields of combinatorics, game theory and algorithms, the stable-roommate problem (SRP) is the problem of finding a stable matching for an even-sized set.

  6. Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm

    Algorithm analysis resembles other mathematical disciplines as it focuses on the algorithm's properties, not implementation. Pseudocode is typical for analysis as it is a simple and general representation. Most algorithms are implemented on particular hardware/software platforms and their algorithmic efficiency is tested using real code. The ...

  7. Algorithm characterizations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm_characterizations

    Unambiguous Operations: an algorithm must have specific, outlined steps. The steps should be exact enough to precisely specify what to do at each step. Well-Ordered: The exact order of operations performed in an algorithm should be concretely defined. Feasibility: All steps of an algorithm should be possible (also known as effectively computable).

  8. Parallel metaheuristic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_metaheuristic

    Parallel metaheuristic is a class of techniques that are capable of reducing both the numerical effort [clarification needed] and the run time of a metaheuristic.To this end, concepts and technologies from the field of parallelism in computer science are used to enhance and even completely modify the behavior of existing metaheuristics.

  9. Hall's marriage theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall's_marriage_theorem

    In mathematics, Hall's marriage theorem, proved by Philip Hall , is a theorem with two equivalent formulations. In each case, the theorem gives a necessary and sufficient condition for an object to exist:
