Abstract: The control of virus spreading over complex networks with a limited budget has attracted much attention but remains challenging. This article aims at addressing the combinatorial, discrete ...

Pioneering computer scientist who devised the Quicksort algorithm, ways of verifying programs and guards against hackers Tony Hoare, who has died aged 92, did much to transform computer program ...

Data structures and algorithms constitute the foundational toolkit of computer science, enabling efficient storage, retrieval and manipulation of data. Data structures—ranging from arrays, linked ...

The Cartesian root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of atomic coordinates is fundamental for comparing three-dimensional molecular structures, particularly in identifying and classifying molecular ...

In its traditional definition, an algorithm means a set of instructions that have been prepared beforehand to solve a particular problem. Algorithms could be an optimum simple procedure or a complex ...

Algorithms have taken on an almost mythical significance in the modern world. They determine what you see on social media and when browsing online, help form people’s belief systems, and impact the ...

C++ & Java implementations of 6 algorithm problems — tromino tiling, knight's tour, Tower of Hanoi (4-peg), knight swap, target shooting, and lattice coverage — using Divide & Conquer, Greedy, BFS, ...

In this paper, we present two divide-and-conquer algorithms for clustering large graphs. Both algorithms apply a base algorithm on several small subgraphs and then use these individual local ...
