Spring 2020

No longer offered. It was in Waterloo’s course catalog since at least Winter 2020 (as far back as Open Data goes) to Spring 2020. It isn’t in the 2024–25 or later calendars.

In the course catalog from Winter 2020 to Spring 2020; Open Data has no classes for it in that time.

Network design under constraints on cost, capacity, distance, and reliability. Approximation algorithms. The set covering problem. Tree solutions: spanning trees, Steiner trees, Gomory-Hu trees, optimum communication spanning trees. Connectivity, survivability, and reliability. Network design with concentrators: the terminal layout problem. Location problems on networks.

Requirements, as last listed

Prereq: MATH 229 or 239 or 249 and (one of CO 227, 250, 255, 352)
