As we draw closer to Christmas and winter sets in, the days become shorter and darker, with the winter solstice marking the shortest day of the year. But when exactly is the shortest day of the year, ...

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

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 ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

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 the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

In recent years, the Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model has gained significant attention. However, most of distributed and parallel graph algorithms in the MPC model are designed for static ...

Desire lines show you where pedestrians want to walk. As such, they can be a useful tool for urban planners No matter what city you’re in, you’re likely to see pedestrians going about their daily ...

Computer Science subject module at Roskilde University. Was made as part of a 15ETCS course where we applied Different Pathfinding strategies to solve shortest path problem. Contains Dijkstra and A* ...

Dive into a world where you're not just a player, but a creator. In this interactive game, you design the maze, but here's the twist: Can you design a maze swiftly, using the least time possible, yet ...
