Algorithms are everywhere, even when we do not notice them. They help us search the web, navigate roads, and discover new content online. Understanding how algorithms work is one of the simplest ways ...

Abstract: One of the key functions of the internet is packet routing of data. A routing protocol outlines the channel of communication between routers that is utilized to connect networks. Numerous ...

A consensus algorithm is the rule a distributed network follows to agree on which new block is added to a blockchain, so every honest node ends up with the same ledger without trusting any single ...

Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...

A 1966 example of the Ford GT40 MkII is heading to auction in January—and it’s not just any example of the already ultra-rare car, but the “most original” one. Eleven MkII GT40s were built, and just ...

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 ...

Cryptography secures communication in banking, messaging, and blockchain. Good algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC, SHA-2/3, ChaCha20) are secure, efficient, and widely trusted. Bad algorithms (DES, MD5, SHA-1, ...
