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

In algorithms, as in life, negativity can be a drag. Consider the problem of finding the shortest path between two points on a graph — a network of nodes connected by links, or edges. Often, these ...

In recent years, the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model has gained significant attention. However, most of distributed and parallel graph algorithms in the MPC model are designed for static ...

Graph algorithms constitute a pivotal component of modern computational science, underpinning diverse applications ranging from transportation optimisation and telecommunications to social network ...

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 the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

If you consider Where's Waldo more of a challenge than an activity, a new algorithm has created a solution that will help you cut out all that pesky searching. Stranded at home after one of the many ...
