Algorithm Engineering: A Sample Lecture Kurt Mehlhorn (Max-Plank Institute, Saarbruecken) Algorithm Engineering is a new buzz word. In my talk I attempt to answer two questions: What is algorithm engineering? How can we teach it? The second item will be addressed by giving a sample lecture on algorithms for maximum matchings in bipartite graphs. I contrast what I would teach in an algorithms course and what I would teach in an algorithms engineering course.
