There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on ...

A recipe for brownies is an algorithm. So is the list of turns to make to drive to your friend’s party. A computer algorithm is no different, except that it’s written in code instead of words.

Like it or not, much of what we encounter online is mediated by computer-run algorithms — complex formulas that help determine our Facebook feeds, Netflix recommendations, Spotify playlists or ...

Become an experienced problem solver who is well-versed in computing theory and programming paradigms by majoring in computer science. You gain substantive research experience and learn how to think ...

Many other places are beefing up computer-science teaching, too. Israel was an early adopter, updating its high-school syllabus a decade ago; New Zealand and some German states recently did the same.

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 ...
