...Even though MIT has larger math and computer science departments than us, we do have some offerings not available at MIT,” says Salil P. Vadhan, professor of Computer Science 225, “Pseudorandomness,” which has seven MIT students in a class...
...very high level, it turns out, somewhat surprisingly, many aspects of computer science suddenly become much richer and more interesting when randomization is thrown into the picture,” said Salil Vadhan, a fellow who is also an assistant professor of computer science at Harvard. “There are some areas of computer science that can’t even get off the ground without looking at randomization; cryptography is an example. But it’s an open question whether randomization is really necessary [in other areas...
