Date: June 30, 2024 Source: ETH Zurich Summary: Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible.

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 ...

Both algorithms work well. However, if we look at them both we can see that the first algorithm contains three rules (conditions), but the second contains just one.

Crunch numbers to the nth degree — and see what happens. When you study computer science and mathematics, you’ll use algorithms and computational theory to create mathematical models or define ...

Researchers in the Algorithms and Bioinformatics cluster develop tools that address real-world problems in medicine, the environment, industry and beyond. Research in the cluster has supported ...
