When a program attempts to search a data structure for a particular item, it uses an algorithm. An algorithm is a process, defined in code, for carrying out a specific task.

Anyone who has taken a basic computer science class has undoubtedly spent time devising a sorting algorithm—code that will take an unordered list of items and put them in ascending or descending ...

Memristor-led system could be applied in areas including smart traffic image sorting and financial risk control scoring, study author says.

A teenage programmer (Ada) is sorting through photos to put them into an album and this is proving to be a very long and laborious task. She then thinks of using a Sorting Algorithm and enlists ...

The new data sorting system based on memristor technology, improved energy efficiency by more than 160 times compared to conventional methods.

The system combines memristors—electronic components that mimic the memory function of the human brain—with an advanced sorting algorithm to process large amounts of information more efficiently.
