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 ...

In all these cases, plugging in random numbers at certain steps in the algorithm helps researchers account for uncertainty about the many ways that complex processes can play out. But adding ...

Optical transport network (OTN) and software-defined networking (SDN) are widely used in backbone and metropolitan transmission networks, to improve network transmission capacity. In OTN, it is ...

A team of computer scientists has come up with a dramatically faster algorithm for one of the oldest problems in computer science: maximum flow. The problem asks how much material can flow through a ...

Slick, viral videos from Boston Dynamics are impressive but teaching a robot to walk by itself is a lot harder.

In this study, we propose a novel network inference algorithm using Random Walk with Restart (RWRNET) that combines local and global topology relationships. The method first captures the local ...
