Computer programming is a lot like chess. ... It is easy to learn the mechanics of a for loop or a Java interface. But what makes programs work are algorithms.

Even computer algorithms can be biased. Scientists have different ideas of how to prevent that Traditional computer algorithms tend to show bias in favor of men when they use entrance exam scores ...

Research team proposed new data placement algorithms for scratch-pad memory (SPM) in embedded systems. Their fine-grained and ...

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has a problem -- it’s artificial. To be fair, AI and its sister disciplines of machine learning, cognitive computing, sentiment analysis and neural networking have a ...

A quantum algorithm, however, runs on a quantum computer, which uses quantum bits (or qubits). Unlike bits, qubits can represent 0 and 1 at the same time, due to a property called superposition.

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 ...
