Quantum mechanics is rich with paradoxes and contradictions. It describes a microscopic world in which particles exist in a ...

There’s a certain irony to the digital age: we are promised infinite connection, yet our online experiences are increasingly ...

Abstract: To address the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW), this paper presents a novel Dual Adaptive Genetic Algorithm (DAGA). While numerous metaheuristic algorithms have been ...

“Imagine a computation that produces a new bit of information in every step, based on the bits that it has computed so far. Over t steps of time, it may generate up to t new bits of information in ...

Understanding a molecule that plays a key role in nitrogen fixing – a chemical process that enables life on Earth – has long ...

Recent survey delivers the first systematic benchmark of TSP solvers spanning end-to-end deep learners, hybrid methods and ...

CLASSIC enables large-scale testing of complex DNA circuits in human cells, advancing data-driven synthetic biology.

It’s July 2025. After a week of building tensions between Russia and the United States, following what seems to be a failed meeting between Trump and Putin in Anchorage, Donald Trump posts an oddly ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

Quantum researchers have created a new algorithm that can reduce noise in qubits while they are working, and it does this in real time. The method works for many different types of qubits, even when ...
