Algorithms are the most effective knowledge repositories yet conceived by mankind for they automate computations on a given formal medium, the computer system. NP-Completeness tell us that among the computable treatable problems there are some which we do not know an efficient way of dealing with, i.e. we do not know how to conceive efficient algorithms for them. Nevertheless, practical experience tells us that many algorithms for these problems are indeed quite effective. That is to say that the experimental analysis of their input/output relationship reveal a far better situation than what can be derived by the mathematical analysis of these algorithms' properties. It also means that the dynamic process induced by the algorithm (i.e. the ...
