Complexity theory is a fundamental branch of theoretical computer science that categorises computational problems according to their inherent difficulty and the resources required to solve them ...

In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of big number multiplication and explore how computers perform this task ...

Which is to say, could the problems that seem so difficult in fact be solved with an algorithm in a reasonable amount of time, if only the right, devilishly fast algorithm could be found?

Computer Scientists Discover Limits of Major Research Algorithm The most widely used technique for finding the largest or smallest values of a math function turns out to be a fundamentally difficult ...

The researchers also considered an extension of the STSP that includes time windows for simultaneous pickups and deliveries, creating a more realistic and challenging problem. The core method involves ...

For each variant, we present exact branch-price-and-cut algorithms that rely on customized monodirectional and bidirectional labeling algorithms for generating feasible vehicle routes. In ...

In this paper, we address an interesting variant of the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) faced by the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC). The CNPC owns a limited number of ...

These algorithms are significant because they can solve the noncommutative weighted Edmonds' problem in polynomial time, demonstrating that certain complex problems can be tackled efficiently [2].
