Ruby Sinclair is the first laureate of the Claudette MacKay-Lassonde Excellence scholarship, which seeks to lift up women in engineering.

If every algorithm that solves task A can also solve task B, for example, then A is more complex than B. Or as mathematicians put it: B is “reducible” to A.

The engineer behind much of the Mac's early graphical user interfaces, QuickDraw, MacPaint, Hypercard and much more, William D. "Bill" Atkinson, died on June 5 of complications from pancreatic cancer.

The findings, published in IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, present a way to protect sensitive videos from rare but extremely powerful computers.

On a computer (PC) producing a circle is a slightly tedious task, this problem was first solved by the Bresenham's circle drawing algorithm, further that same algorithm was again improved by the ...

Experts predict when quantum computers will finally break Bitcoin, the likely impact, and propose solutions to fix the issue.

Dijkstra’s algorithm was long thought to be the most efficient way to find a graph’s best routes. Researchers have now proved that it’s “universally optimal.” ...

A computer made from DNA that can solve basic chess and sudoku puzzles could one day, if scaled up, save vast amounts of energy over traditional computers when it comes to tasks like training ...
