Remembering Rajeev Motwani
This session is a homage to Rajeev Motwani; a brilliant researcher who made
fundamental contributions to many areas including randomized algorithms,
computational complexity, approximation algorithms, data mining
and mathematical modelling of the world-wide web. Rajeev was a
great teacher too; he has co-authored two books, one on randomized
algorithms and another on theory of computation which have taught
these two subjects to students all over the world.
