Design and Analysis of Algorithms
Date: January 6, 2026 Time: 40 Minutes Max Marks: 14 Marks
Instructions:
1. This is an open book (take-home) tutorial. Only handwritten notebooks are al-
lowed.
2. Calculators are allowed.
3. Show all steps of your solution and give full derivation of your results using efficient
algorithms.
4. Solve any one out of the following three problems. Each problem has equal weigh-
tage.
1. Tile the follwoing 8 × 8 defective chessboard using triominoes using the divide and
conquer algorithm, and draw the divide and conquer graph for the solution.
2. Find 2323×3232 using Karatsuba’s Divide and Conquer Integer Multiplication Algorithm
showing the computations in a divide and conquer graph.
3. Design a divide and conquer algorithm for multiplying an 𝑛-digit long integer to
a single digit. Derive its time complexity. Show the working of your algorithm for
computing 87654321 × 9 in a divide and conquer graph.
