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 decades, computer scientists working on negative-weight graphs tried to match the speed of Dijkstra’s algorithm with similar “combinatorial” algorithms. These involve discrete operations — like ...

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

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

Scientists Establish the Best Algorithm for Traversing a Map Dijkstra’s algorithm was long thought to be the most efficient way to find a graph’s best routes.

The findings, published in IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, present a way to protect sensitive videos from rare but extremely powerful computers.

Award-winning advance increases network performance, that could mean faster response times for drone navigation, telecoms, disaster evacuation.

Algorithmia, an online marketplace that connects computer science researchers' algorithms with developers who may have uses for them, has exited its private beta.

Scientists used a computer algorithm and a brain scanning technique called fMRI to "read" peoples' minds. (This is a stock image.) (Image credit: Aja Koska via Getty Images) ...
