Final Meeting of the SPP "Algorithm Engineering"
Efficient algorithms and data structures are a prerequisite for demanding computer applications that work with large data sets on increasingly complex hardware. Algorithmics – the systematic development of efficient algorithms – is therefore decisive for the transfer of technological possibilities into applications with large impact on engineering, economy, science, and our daily life. However, the solution of pending problems is inhibited by a wide gap between the state of knowledge of algorithm theory and the practical application of applications. The goal of algorithm engineering (AE) is to bridge this gap which has widened for decades now. The key for achieving this goal is a wider methodology. At the core of this methodology is a cycle of design, analysis, implementation, and experimental evaluation of practicable algorithms. Realistic models for machines and applications, algorithm libraries, and collections of real world inputs provide additional coupling to applications.
Priority Program "Algorithm Engineering"
The Priority program's aim is to sustain innovative drive for the application of algorithms by advancing AE, establishing it more widely, and cross-linking AE researchers. The program supports research projects that significantly contribute to bridging the described gaps between theory and practice using AE methodology.
Whithin six years the Priority program "Algorithm Engineering" supported dozens of projects from all over the Germany. The scientific outcome measures in hundreds of publications.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
