Sequential and Parallel Algorithms and Data Structures

Focusing on the essential tools for data organization and retrieval, this textbook covers a wide range of algorithms and techniques for graph-related problems. It balances theory with practical applications, addressing both classical results and cutting-edge research. Topics include arrays, hash tables, sorting, graph traversal, and optimization, alongside discussions on algorithm engineering and memory hierarchies. The book emphasizes the shift towards parallel processing, reflecting the needs of modern performance-critical applications and enhancing the teaching of algorithms.
