Edsger W. Dijkstra

Edsger Wybe Dijkstra (/ˈdaɪkstrə/ DYKE-strə; Dutch: [ˈɛtsxər ˈʋibə ˈdɛikstra]; 11 May 1930 – 6 August 2002) was a Dutch computer scientist, programmer, software engineer, systems scientist, and science essayist. He received the 1972 Turing Award for fundamental contributions to developing programming languages, and was the Schlumberger Centennial Chair of Computer Sciences at The University of Texas at Austin from 1984 until 2000. Shortly before his death in 2002, he received the ACM PODC Influential Paper Award in distributed computing for his work on self-stabilization of program computation. This annual award was renamed the Dijkstra Prize the following year, in his honor. (Wikipedia).

Graph Data Structure 4. Dijkstra’s Shortest Path Algorithm

This is the fourth in a series of computer science videos about the graph data structure. This is an explanation of Dijkstra’s algorithm for finding the shortest path between one vertex in a graph and another. Indeed, this explains how Dijkstra’s shortest path algorithm generates a set o

Intro to Algorithms: Crash Course Computer Science #13

Algorithms are the sets of steps necessary to complete computation - they are at the heart of what our devices actually do. And this isn’t a new concept. Since the development of math itself algorithms have been needed to help us complete tasks more efficiently, but today we’re going to ta

Object Oriented Programming vs Functional Programming

Object-Oriented Programming has been the dominant approach for the past couple of decades, but Functional programming languages are growing in popularity and influence. So is OO programming outdated? Is Functional programming a fashion that simply misses the point? Many Functional program

Turing Lecture: Dr Cynthia Dwork, Privacy-Preserving Data Analysis

Doctor Cynthia Dwork: Privacy-Preserving Data Analysis Privacy-preserving data analysis has a long history, spanning at least five decades and numerous disciplines. Despite this extensive history, it is only in the last decade that an understanding has formed of the risk that the accumula
