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 for ...

When X's engineering team published the code that powers the platform's "for you" algorithm last month, Elon Musk said the ...

Have a problem with many competing variables? Why not solve it with a computer algorithm based on cooling metal? Hosted by: Hank Green Huge thanks go to the following Patreon supporters for helping us ...

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 ...

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 ...
