A canonical problem in computer science is to find the shortest route to every point in a network. A new approach beats the ...

Researchers have devised an "absurdly fast" algorithm to solve the problem of finding the fastest flow through a network.

Drone With No GPS Generates Fastest Path and Avoids Obstacles, Uses Google Maps Algorithm Published: 3 Nov 2021, 16:16 UTC • By: Cristina Mircea 6 photos ...

The authors’ second, more substantive assumption was that a fast path-finding algorithm would remain “rooted” — that is, it would build up a path to the exit node without ever losing track ...

Last November, Coudron and two colleagues took a big step toward resolving that long-standing problem: They proved that no algorithm in a broad and natural class of fast quantum algorithms can find a ...
