Chemical Engineering - Computational Methods and Algorithms for IE IENG 3305   Computational Methods and Algorithms for IE
CREDIT HOURS: 3
An overview of advanced programming methods is presented with an introduction to algorithms used in industrial engineering applications. Topics covered include sorting searching, data structures, shortest paths, random number generation, simulated annealing, matrix operations, curve fitting and geometric algorithms. Theta notation (used for measuring the efficiency of algorithms is introduced, as well as analytical and empirical measurement techniques. Techniques for writing and debugging large program, and controlling numerical errors are taught. The VBA programming language will be used for implementation.
