In a world run by computers, there is one algorithm that stands above all the rest. It powers search engines, encrypts your ...

However, girls tend to be more diligent in elementary school and get better grades in math class throughout their schooling. And girls and boys across the grades tend to score similarly on state math ...

In this paper we introduce two general techniques for the design and analysis of approximation algorithms for NP-hard scheduling problems in which the objective is to minimize the weighted sum of the ...

The PSLQ procedure can be regarded as a jazzed-up version of an integer-relation algorithm dating back more than 2,000 years to the Greek geometer Euclid of Alexandria (365–300 B.C.). The Euclidean ...
