Edsger Dijkstra and Shortest Path Algorithm, Slides of Data Structures and Algorithms

An overview of edsger dijkstra's contributions to computer science, specifically his algorithm for finding the shortest path between vertices in a weighted graph. Quotes from dijkstra, explanations of the shortest path problem and dijkstra's solution, and examples of dynamic programming and the principle of optimality. It also discusses the 0-1 knapsack problem and all-pairs shortest paths problem.

Quotation

• "Computer science is no more about

computers than astronomy is about

telescopes."

• E. W. Dijkstra

Edsger Dijkstra made many more contributions to computer science than the algorithm that is named after him. He was Professor of Computer Sciences in the University of Texas
