| REZUMAT: |
This textbook has grown up in the last twenty years, based on my courses of Algebra
taught for first year students in Computer Science at the “Babe¸s-Bolyai” University of
Cluj-Napoca. Besides the rather classical mathematical content, we also present some
illustrations of the interplay between Algebra and Computer Science, which offers bidirectional
applications. If we only restrict to Linear Algebra for Computer Science, then
we should mention applications to several important research topics in Computer Science,
such as Networks, Theory of Computation, Mathematics of Computing, Information Systems,
Security and Privacy, Computing Methodologies and Applied Computing (see the
corresponding addendum for some further details). The material is directed towards first
year students in Computer Science, but it may be useful to anyone interested in an introduction
to Linear Algebra and its applications to Computer Science. |
