Online computations and algorithms - In computer science, an online algorithm is one that can process its input piece-by-piece, without having the entire input available from the start.
In contrast, an offline algorithm is given the whole problem data from the beginning and is required to output an answer which solves the problem at hand.

 Online algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer science, an online algorithm is one that can process its input piece-by-piece, without having the entire input available from the start.
As an example of the problem consider the problem of finding a shortest path in a finite connected graph when the graph is unknown and the algorithm receives the node neighbours only when it "enters" the node.
Thus, new performance measures have to be introduced, such as competitive analysis, which compares the performance of an online algorithm with that of a hypothetical offline algorithm that knows the entire input in advance.

Computer Science has a number of major sub-fields which can be classified by a number of means (for example the ACM classification system).
Algorithms are often implemented in software, and advancing the state of the art in algorithms is responsible for many of the most spectacular successes in computing.
The field of algorithms is highly formal and many things can be proved about a given algorithm (using complexity theory), including roughly how long it will take to complete, as compared to the size of its input (the number of options it must consider).

 Algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The computational complexity and efficient implementation of the algorithm are important in computing, and this depends on suitable data structures.
Algorithms are essential to the way computers process information, because a computer program is essentially an algorithm that tells the computer what specific steps to perform (in what specific order) in order to carry out a specified task, such as calculating employees’ paychecks or printing students’ report cards.
However, algorithms are also implemented by other means, such as in a biological neural network (for example, the human brain implementing arithmetic or an insect relocating food), in electric circuits, or in a mechanical device.

 Computer arithmetic. Online computations
The on-line computer arithmetic was invented in 1975 by M.D.Ercegovac and K.S.Trivedi, who proposed on-line algorithms for the basic arithmetic operations: addition, multiplication and division of numbers.
New algorithms for on-line computations were developed and some efforts to start their practical implementation were made.
Introducing a redundant representation of numbers is beneficial to computer arithmetic algorithms because either the speed of computations or their fault-tolerance can be improved.
