A new computational method allows modern atomic models to learn from experimental thermodynamic data, according to a ...

What is quantum computing, really? We explain qubits, superposition, and the quantum threat to encryption — in plain English, with no PhD required.

Quantum Computing Inc. (NASDAQ: QUBT), an innovative, quantum optics and integrated photonics technology company, recently announced the completion of acquiring Luminar Semiconductor, Inc. ("LSI"), a ...

Researchers from Chiba University have developed a lightweight peer-selection algorithm that significantly reduces data propagation delays without increasing resource usage on internet of things (IoT) ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. All of modern mathematics is built on the foundation of set theory, the study of how to organize abstract collections of objects. But in ...

Access to high school computer science courses has plateaued, and overall high school student participation in those classes has declined slightly, concludes Code.org’s annual report on the state of ...

Space and time aren’t just woven into the background fabric of the universe. To theoretical computer scientists, time and space (also known as memory) are the two fundamental resources of computation.

One day in November, a product strategist we’ll call Michelle (not her real name), logged into her LinkedIn account and switched her gender to male. She also changed her name to Michael, she told ...

Descriptive set theorists study the niche mathematics of infinity. Now, they’ve shown that their problems can be rewritten in the concrete language of algorithms. All of modern mathematics is built on ...
