Mode of study

Not applicable.

Learning outcomes of the course unit

Students have skills of design and implementation of various forms of abstract data types and its application to solve specific problems. To solve them the stduents can use linear, tree and graph data structures, furthemore they can search in the data structures and used genetic algorithms for search in a search space and optimization.

Prerequisites

The fundamentals of programming and communication technology are required.

Co-requisites

Not applicable.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Techning methods include lectures, computer laboratories and practical laboratories. Course is taking advantage of e-learning (Moodle) system. Students have to write a single project/assignment during the course.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Students are evaluated according to their activities in laboratories and by the final exam. The concrete distribution is specified in an yearly published supervisor's notice.
