Griffin added that he’s thrown on back-to-back days while experiencing no issues. The 20-year-old phenom hit the injured list ...

A new quantum-inspired algorithm has cracked a problem so massive that conventional supercomputers struggle to even approach it. Researchers used the method to simulate extraordinarily complex quantum ...

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 ...

You probably don’t need more time. By Jancee Dunn When I look back on all the major decisions I’ve dithered over, I could scream. It took me a decade to commit to becoming a parent. I wavered for a ...

Fuel-based generators are the primary source of electricity in power engineering 1,2. A challenge in this area is the Economic Load Dispatch (ELD), which deals with properly scheduling a group of ...

In a standard paper assignment setting, a set $\mathcal{P}$ of $n^{(p)}$ papers needs to be assigned to a set $\mathcal{R}$ of $n^{(r)}$ reviewers. To ensure each ...

Abstract: The growth of international trade has accelerated the development of waterway transportation, thereby increasing the demand for the construction of container terminals. Optimizing the Berth ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...

Right now, quantum computers are small and error-prone compared to where they’ll likely be in a few years. Even within those limitations, however, there have been regular claims that the hardware can ...

The problem of order allocation belongs to a category of combinatorial optimization problems where orders are allocated to machines for production. Each order is assigned to a single machine, while ...

The challenge of optimizing gate assignments is a complex puzzle with many moving parts. New algorithms are being developed to tackle this, leveraging advancements in AI and optimization techniques.
