Description:
The teaching of problem solving is not an easy task, and this project aims to produce material for the only way that I know works, which is apprenticeship. That is, work with the students through non-trivial examples (like the famous book on unix by John Lions).

Your tasks for this project are:
1. select three challenging problems
2. write an in-depth article on the history and
applications of each problem, and its technical
issues (complexity, ... etc.).
3. implement a series (with increased levels of
sophistication and improved performance) solutions
to demonstrate the process that a problem solver
(may) go through towards developing a correctly
working solution for complex problems.


Problems are selected by you and approved by me, or
chosen by me as a last resort only.
