There are some computer problems so hard that computer scientists consider them out of reach. They label them "intractable" and move on. But researchers at Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y., have ...

Under the hood, mathematical problems called partial differential equations (PDEs) model these natural processes. Among the many PDEs used in physics and computer graphics, a class called second ...

They'd be cracking most online-security systems, revolutionizing science and even, in effect, solving the other six of the so-called Millennium Problems, all of which were chosen in the year 2000.

A new way to solve the ‘hardest of the hard’ computer problems. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2021 / 09 / 210921081010.htm ...

A new computer program works smarter, not harder, to solve problems faster than its predecessors. The algorithm is designed to find the best solution to a given problem among all possible options ...

Mathematicians have discovered a problem they cannot solve. It's not that they're not smart enough; there simply is no answer. The problem has to do with machine learning — the type of ...

In the meantime, the machine's analog mode can apparently solve optimization problems with as many as 50 variables, which can already be useful and potentially very difficult to solve on classical ...
