I try to find the time complexity of following recurrence relation:
$$T(n) = 3T(n-2) + O(n)$$
After subtitution,I get:
$$T(n)=3^{\frac{n}{2}}T(0)+\sum_{i=0}^{\frac{n}{2}-1}3^iO(n-2i)$$
I wonder if the ans is $O(3^{\frac{n}{2}})$ or $O(3^{\frac{n}{2}} n)$,
can someone give a help to determine the ans and give a proof ab... |
I am having trouble answering the question below:
"Explain why the statement, “The running time of algorithm A is at least O(n^2)”, is content-free."
The statement apparently does not give any information on the running time of A but if A = T(n), then T(n) >= O(n^2). Doesn't this at the very least tell us that A runs b... |
So I was reading the use complement operation in the digital logic and found, it is used to give additive inverse of the number and subtracting a number (like we do) is difficult for computer. So it adds the negative representation of the number, which is $a - b = a + (-b)$.
Now both complement's used to represent the ... |
TL;DR: I'm looking for the fastest known algorithm to perform optimal register allocation (optimal in the sense of minimizing the number of spills and reloads) for straight-line programs.

I am working on an optimized implementation of certain computational kernels. I have a code generator which outputs variants... |
