Kharizmi helped solidify the concept of algorithms in mathematics and popularized algebra and the use of the zero.

D-Wave is something of an anomaly in a quantum computing industry. While companies ranging from hyperscalers like Microsoft, ...

Abstract: Critical network defense and attack problems, usually modeled as network interdiction, is of great significance. It is of great interest from the interdictor’s view to study saturation ...

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

In a world dominated by algorithms, it's common to associate them with a negative bias. Mathematician Clara Grima defends their usefulness in her latest work, although she also recognizes the ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Chinese computer scientists have solved a 40-year-old mathematics bottleneck, an advance that might help boost performance in hi-tech areas ranging from chip design and telecommunications to drone ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

For non-planar graphs, such solutions are computationally intractable," explained the researchers. The algorithm relies on the Kac-Ward formalism, a mathematical method that allows exact computation ...

Graph theory is an integral component of algorithm design that underlies sparse matrices, relational databases, and networks. Improving the performance of graph algorithms has direct implications to ...
