A computer program is an algorithm, written in a computer programming language, that a computer can understand and execute.

Learn what an algorithm is and how they can be represented in Bitesize KS3 Computer Science.

The world of computing is full of buzzwords: AI, supercomputers, machine learning, the cloud, quantum computing and more. One word in particular is used throughout computing – algorithm.

One notable example is the $34 million secured by British quantum algorithms specialist Phasecraft from a group of investors, including an entity linked to Danish pharmaceutical ...

That’s why there is serious work underway to design new types of algorithms that are resistant to even the most powerful quantum computer we can imagine. What do these algorithms even do?

Quantum computers promise enormous computational power, but the nature of quantum states makes computation and data inherently "noisy." Rice University computer scientists have developed algorithms ...

Every problem in P is also in PSPACE, because fast algorithms just don’t have enough time to fill up much space in a computer’s memory.

Chinese researchers claim to have successfully used a quantum computer to attack key encryption algorithms used in blockchain and banking.

The goal of cognitive computing is to simulate human thought processes in a computerized model. Using self-learning algorithms that use data mining, pattern recognition and natural language ...

For years, quantum computing’s news cycle was dominated by headlines about record-setting systems. Researchers at Google and IBM have had spats over who achieved what—and whether it was worth ...
