Computational complexity and proof systems are fundamental areas in theoretical computer science that explore the limits of what can be computed and how efficiently problems can be solved. Recent ...

For years, quantum computers have been framed as the ultimate problem solvers, machines that would eventually crack any task that classical hardware could not touch. Now a new line of research is ...

Quantum computers promise to revolutionize our ability to solve problems thanks to their unique properties. However, a team of researchers has just discovered a computable task that appears impossible ...

A May 2024 Reuters Institute and University of Oxford survey, which included more than 12,000 people from six countries, found that 21% of respondents on average have used ChatGPT professionally. This ...

Computational Chemistry is the study of complex chemical problems using a combination of computer simulations, chemistry theory and information science. Also called cheminformatics, this field enables ...

What’s the best way to solve hard problems? That’s the question at the heart of a subfield of computer science called computational complexity theory. It’s a hard question to answer, but flip it ...

The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) on Wednesday announced that it has awarded this year's A.M. Turing prize, often referred to as the Nobel Prize of computing, to computer scientist and ...

Your grade school teacher probably didn’t show you how to add 20-digit numbers. But if you know how to add smaller numbers, all you need is paper and pencil and a bit of patience. Start with the ones ...
