When marketers talk about programmatic advertising, they picture a clean pipe: a brand puts a dollar in one end, an algorithm ...

Abstract: The classic buffer insertion algorithm of van Ginneken has time and space complexity O(n/sup 2/), where n is the number of possible buffer positions. For more than a decade, van Ginneken's ...

We develop and engineer algorithms for fully dynamic graph problems-- efficiently maintaining solutions as edges and vertices are inserted and deleted. Developed at the Algorithm Engineering Group, ...

Estimating the number of triangles in a graph is a fundamental problem and has found applications in many fields. This problem has been widely studied in the context of graph stream processing.

As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

You then repeat the process until every book is in its proper place. Insertion Sort takes a smarter approach. Instead of dragging the largest item to the end, it builds a sorted section piece by piece ...

I'm a software developer and writer, passionate about learning and sharing knowledge and one way I do that is through writing. I'm a software developer and writer, passionate about learning and ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

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 ...

Abstract: Buffer insertion is an effective technique to reduce interconnect delay. In this paper, we give a simple O(mn) time algorithm for optimal buffer insertion, where m is the number of sinks and ...
