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 ...

Astronomers use brokers to identify which signals to pursue in an endless stream of alerts. Looking up at the stars at night, it may not be obvious that the universe is constantly changing. But it is: ...

sort_a_unstable_ascending() and sort_a_unstable_descending() are the unstable sorting functions that sort elements in either ascending or descending order while discarding original sort order context.

This presents a set-based topological sorting algorithm for directed acyclic graphs (DAG). Unlike traditional algorithms that produce a linear order of nodes, it yields a linear sequence of sets of ...

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

The waste crisis is devastating our planet. A lot of the stuff we throw gets dumped in landfills. These massive waste disposal sites are often created by destroying forests or inhabitable lands. For ...

The emergence of the Metaverse marks a transformative era in the field of education where learning transcends traditional classroom boundaries and enters immersive virtual environments. This digital ...
