Researchers have developed an algorithm that enhances the ability of a quantum computer to more efficiently find the best solution for complicated problems.

We consider the optimal stopping problem for g (Zn), where Zn, n = 1,2,..., is a homogeneous Markov sequence. An algorithm, called forward improvement iteration, is presented by which an optimal ...

The researchers are seeking to address these concerns and make QKD viable by introducing a new metric called "maximum number ...

To qualify as solving a problem, an algorithm needs to find an exact solution for all instances, including very large ones.

Computational thinking has largely been associated with computer science, but some educators see how this way of thinking can apply across the curriculum.

Often leaders will think they are driving a problem-solving culture by insistent, or even just encouraging, team members to utilize the tools and templates of problem-solving. However, most ...

In many cases, the first step you take toward solving a problem helps to make the solution apparent. Here's what to do when you're faced with a business challenge.
