Conventional quantum algorithms are not feasible for solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) with constraints in the operation time of quantum computers. To address this issue, researchers ...

Integer linear programming can help find the answer to a variety of real-world problems. Now researchers have found a much faster way to do it. The traveling salesperson problem is one of the oldest ...

In 1994, a mathematician figured out how to make a quantum computer do something that no ordinary classical computer could. The work revealed that, in principle, a machine based on the rules of ...

A May 2024 Reuters Institute and University of Oxford survey, which included more than 12,000 people from six countries, found that 21% of respondents on average have used ChatGPT professionally. This ...

Quantum computing is rapidly emerging and, as it progresses forward, promises to cross fields of industry—from health sciences to finance and many other fields. Its advent is transforming the face of ...

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 ...

Scientists say using math to sort through DNA could help investigators put stubborn cold cases to rest. The approach combines the relatively new field of forensic genetic genealogy—solving crime by ...

It would take normal computer 10,000 years to solve the same problem. Google announced Wednesday it designed a machine that would take only 200 seconds to solve a problem that the world's fastest ...

Almost weekly a friend or an acquaintance asks me, “I want to learn to code; which language should I start with?” More or less bi-weekly I get a DM on LinkedIn starting with, “My son should start ...
