Daniel Lokshtanov’s work explores the limits of what computers can solve, paving the way for advances in artificial intelligence and computational efficiency.

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 ...

The tiny worm Caenorhabditis elegans has a brain just about the width of a human hair. Yet this animal’s itty-bitty organ coordinates and computes complex movements as the worm forages for food. “When ...

An algorithm could be used to map out different types of road routes An algorithm is a set of instructions to solve a problem or complete a task. Algorithms are vital for programming, as they provide ...

Many experts believe that once quantum computers are big enough and reliable enough to solve useful problems, the most common deployment architecture will be to have them serve as accelerators for ...

The intersection of evolutionary algorithms and data-driven optimisation is reshaping materials science by offering novel computational frameworks for designing and refining materials. Drawing ...

Scientists have unearthed 188 previously unknown types of CRISPR systems buried in the genomes of simple microorganisms. Best known as a powerful gene-editing tool, CRISPR actually comes from an ...

A study describes a new computer algorithm which can be applied to Earth System Models to drastically reduce the time needed to prepare these in order to make accurate predictions of future climate ...

What are the extraordinary ideas computers use every day? -- Search engine indexing, finding needles in the world's biggest haystack -- PageRank, the technology that ...
