Dijkstra is a legend in computer science and his algorithm, which he published in 1959, predates packet switching by a few years. The specification for OSPF (Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), one of ...

Abstract: An algorithm to address the shortcoming of Bubble Sort.The short coming of bubble sort is that it is inefficient for large dataset and provides more execution time. The backtracking variable ...

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 ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

Abstract: To address the challenge of ensuring a submarine can smoothly pass through a strait and complete its mission, this article proposes using a magnetic decoy array to simulate the submarine’s ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

repetition rates greater than those achieved with standard sonar. Dynamically focused technology is a way to achieve higher resolution imagery at longer ranges when compared to conventional side scan ...
