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 ...

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.

A Routing Protocol Simulator in Python that allows users to simulate and compare two major routing algorithms: Link-State Routing (Dijkstra’s Algorithm) for efficient shortest path computation using a ...

This project explores drone navigation in both simulated and real-world environments using two popular pathfinding algorithms: A* and Bellman-Ford. The implementation demonstrates the application of ...

This week I interviewed Senator Amy Klobuchar, Democrat of Minnesota, about her Preventing Algorithmic Collusion Act. If you don’t know what algorithmic collusion is, it’s time to get educated, ...

In the era of vast data, information retrieval is crucial for search engines, recommender systems, and any application that needs to find documents based on their content. The process involves three ...

Abstract: Process variations in digital circuits make sequential circuit timing validation an extremely challenging task. In this paper, a Statistical Bellman-Ford (SBF) algorithm is proposed to ...

Abstract: Routing algorithms based on the distributed Bellman-Ford algorithm (DBF) suffer from exponential message complexity in some scenarios. We propose two modifications to the algorithm which ...
