Overview: Algorithm selection is an engineering decision: the wrong choice can freeze a system at scale, regardless of ...

A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum ...

Abstract: The distributed hybrid flowshop scheduling problems (DHFSPs) widely exist in various industrial production processes, and thus have received widespread attention. However, the existing ...

In a conversation with his friends in Bostan, Alex realized that dried fruit is going to be expensive. So he took his basket and went to the grocery store. His son came to help him to buy the basket ...

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 ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Abstract: The Steiner Forest Problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem in operations research and computer science. Given an undirected graph with non-negative weights for edges and ...
