In life, we sometimes have to make decisions without all the information we want; that’s true in computer science, too. This is the realm of online algorithms — which, despite their name, don’t ...

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 ...

In 1994, a mathematician figured out how to make a quantum computer do something that no ordinary classical computer could. The work revealed that, in principle, a machine based on the rules of ...

The Foundations of Data Structures and Algorithms specialization includes two optional preparation courses and a three-course pathway to earn admission to the Online MS in Computer Science. You must ...

The US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has debuted three encryption algorithms that it claims will help safeguard critical data from cyber attacks originating from quantum ...
