Parameterized algorithmics analyzes the runtime in finer detail than classical complexity theory: instead of
expressing the runtime as a function of the input size only, the dependence on a parameter of the input is taken
into account. The aim is to isolate any fast growth of the runtime to a parameter, while the remaining growth of the
time is kept low. Apart from giving a deeper theoretical understanding of the complexity of a problem, this can also
lead to efficient (practical) algorithms if the parameter describes a property of the inputs, for which the parameter is
typically small.
