Abstract

    The tutorial surveys main techniques and results in the development of exactand fixed-parameter algorithms. We concentrate mainly on the algorithmic(and less on the complexity-theoretic) side, exhibiting techniques such assearch trees, polynomial-time data reduction and kernelization, iterativecompression, color-coding etc. The problems we discuss occur in variousdomains, ranging from computational biology to computational social choice.
