Algorithmic graph theory and optimisation represents a critical nexus between discrete mathematics and computer science, underpinning the development of efficient methodologies for analysing complex ...

A new technique breaks Dijkstra's 70-year-old record: it finds routes faster in huge networks, changing graph theory forever.

From powering search engines to securing data and optimizing networks, algorithms underpin nearly every aspect of modern technology. Understanding how efficiently they can solve problems — and where ...

Algorithmic complexity and information theory are foundational disciplines that intersect to elucidate how data is structured, transmitted and computed. At its core, algorithmic complexity seeks to ...

Prof. Jason Hartline was a Co-organizer for the GReece Economic and Algorithmic Theory Week (GREAT), held July 18-24, 2014 in Santa Maria Beach, Paros, Greece. Also from Northwestern, Prof. Nicole ...

Rice quantum computing researchers have introduced a novel algorithm that earned the team a place in the global XPRIZE Quantum Applications competition.
