Connecting Discrete Mathematics and Computer Science

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This textbook is designed for undergraduate students taking a course on the mathematical foundations of computer science. It is written from an exclusively CS perspective rather than for a mixed-discipline audience, helping CS students see the ways that foundational mathematical material is central to the discipline of computer science.

Autorenporträt

David Liben-Nowell is Professor of Computer Science at Carleton College, and earned degrees from Cornell, Cambridge, and MIT. His research focuses on computational social science, especially social networks. He teaches broadly, emphasizing introductory and theoretical computer science, and created and led a study-abroad program in England (History of Computing). He is on the ACM 202x curriculum subcommittee for what was previously called 'discrete structures', and is a member of the Liberal Arts CS (LACS) consortium. His awards and honors include NSF research funding, Kavli Fellow of the National Academy of Sciences, and Visiting By-Fellowship at Churchill College (at Cambridge).
