Abstract

The algorithm design problem is concerned with the construction of an algorithm satisfying a given specification of a problem. We present an overview of a system, called NAPS, which designs algorithms in a to~own manner. Given a formal specification of a problem NAPS produces a top level algorithm plus specifications for any necessary subalgprithms. The specifications for the subalgprithms are produced in such a w~ that the top level algorithm will satisfy the original specifications if and only if subalgorithms can be built which satisfY the subalgprithm specifications.
