Recensione

"LEDA presents a different sort of library, namely, one that supports the type of programming that is the basis of our standard algorithm and data structures courses... LEDA, the book, complements LEDA, the library... I find it both highly commendable and also somewhat mind-boggling that well-known researchers will take time to contribute in substantialways to the practice: commendable, because such work contributes to the vitality and progress of the practical side of our discipline, while simultaneously validating the need for fundamental research; and mind-boggling because I can only imagine the investment of time such a project requires. A measure of LEDA'S success can ben found in its use. At the time the book was written over 1500 institutions had intalled LEDA on local systems... And so, my hat is off to Kurt Mehlhorn and Stefan Naher for their fine contribution to our discipline." SIGACT News

"...a comprehensive treatment of the system and its use." Mathematical Reviews

Descrizione del libro

LEDA is the first library of efficient data types and algorithms and a platform for combinatorial and geometric computing and this is the first book devoted to it. Written by the main authors of LEDA it is the definitive account, making the book essential for all workers in algorithms, data structures and computational geometry.
