Résumé
In today's society, our lives increasingly revolve around large networks, such as communication networks, social networks, and transportation networks. To analyze these networks, we need algorithms -- structured methods for solving computational problems. Dr. Harvey¿s research aims to find the most efficient algorithms for problems involving large-scale networks. His work uses cutting-edge mathematical tools but is also very practical, and can be applied to real-world networks arising in numerous areas, such as operations research and information visualization. Dr. Harvey is an expert in randomization and optimization, which are the key tools for the next generation of algorithms for analyzing large-scale networks.
