Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs for ...

Recent survey delivers the first systematic benchmark of TSP solvers spanning end-to-end deep learners, hybrid methods and ...

Sachdeva’s breakthrough challenges one of the most studied problems in computer science, known as maximum flow, which ...

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 ...

Programming in assembly language and C for students with prior experience in Java. Topics include binary number encodings, instruction set architecture, assembly language programming, and instruction ...

Quantum computers are coming. And when they arrive, they are going to upend the way we protect sensitive data. Unlike classical computers, quantum computers harness quantum mechanical effects — like ...

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in general, research mathematicians don’t need to think about it ...

Students enrolled in the Professional MS in Computer Science (MSCPS) program with the Algorithms, Network and Optimization (ANO) subplan must complete 30 credit hours of graduate coursework that align ...

Imagine a world where artificial intelligence not only understands language but creates with it, where quantum systems no longer feel like an enigma but a solvable puzzle. It might sound like science ...

“God does not play dice with the universe,” Albert Einstein is reported to have said about the field of Quantum Physics. He was referring to the great divide at the time in the physics community ...
