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 ...

Before computer science, there were equations, formulas and theorems. Computer science allowed sequences of operations, processes, and procedures to be developed to process complex problems.

In doing so, he devised perhaps the most famous approximation algorithm in theoretical computer science—one that usually forms the first example in textbooks and courses.

One computer scientist’s “stunning” proof is the first progress in 50 years on one of the most famous questions in computer science.

To compare the performance of algorithms, we use computer science style notation O (f (n)), which should be interpreted as ‘asymptotically upper-bounded by f (n)’.

Artificial intelligence learned how to generate text and art better than ever before, while computer scientists developed algorithms that solved long-standing problems. In 2023, artificial ...

“By provably correct, I mean that the resulting algorithm is guaranteed to be correct on any instance.” This discovery opens up the field of mathematics and computer science to explore numerous other ...

Quantum researchers have deployed a new algorithm to manage noise in qubits in real time. The method can be applied to a wide ...

A global push for more computer science in classrooms is starting to bear fruit ...
