Sipser complexity theory

  • The key idea to measure time and space as a function of the length of the input came in the early 1960's by Hartmanis and Stearns.
    And thus computational complexity was born.
    In the early days of complexity, researchers just tried understanding these new measures and how they related to each other.
  • Theory of computation (TOC) is a branch of Computer Science that is concerned with how problems can be solved using algorithms and how efficiently they can be solved.
    Real-world computers perform computations that by nature run like mathematical models to solve problems in systematic ways.
Sipser specializes in algorithms and complexity theory, specifically efficient error correcting codes, interactive proof systems, randomness, quantum  BiographyScientific career
