About Gale–Shapley algorithm
In mathematics, economics, and computer science, the Gale–Shapley algorithm is an algorithm for finding a solution to the stable matching problem. It is named for David Gale and Lloyd Shapley, who published it in 1962 in The American Mathematical Monthly, although it had been used for the National Resident Matching Program since 1952 despite lacking the theoretical foundation. Shapley and Alvin E. Roth won the 2012 Nobel Prize in Economics for work including this algorithm. It had been said that Gale would have been the third co-recipient of the Prize, if he were alive.
