'''Algorithmics''' is the systematic study of the design and analysis of [[Algorithm|algorithms]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=The University of Auckland - COMPSCI 320 S2C|url=https://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/compsci320s2c/|access-date=2020-06-24|website=www.cs.auckland.ac.nz}}</ref> It is fundamental and one of the oldest fields of [[computer science]]. It includes [[algorithm design]], the art of building a procedure which can solve efficiently a specific problem or a class of problem, [[algorithmic complexity theory]], the study of estimating the hardness of problems by studying the properties of the algorithm that solves them, or [[algorithm analysis]], the science of studying the properties of a problem, such as quantifying resources in time and memory space needed by this algorithm to solve this problem.
The term algorithmics is rarely used in the English-speaking world, where it is synonymous with ''algorithms and data structures''. The term gained wider popularity after the publication of the book ''Algorithmics: The Spirit of Computing'' by [[David Harel]].
