Unless you're lucky enough to have access to a professional IT staff, you probably end up solving most of your own computer troubles. Heck, half the time I have to fix all of Rick's problems, too, ...

She’s a grad student, a budding molecular biologist who studies yeast to see how proteins interact. He’s a grad student who builds problem-solving algorithms and he’s writing one to help her predict ...

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 ...

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 ...

A group of computer gamers are making habit of outshining scientists at their own game. Most of them have no scientific background, but they have a track record of cracking tough scientific puzzles, ...
