Algorithms using computers first rose to prominence in the mid-20th century, when the military began writing formulas for, say, determining where to aim a missile at a moving object.

Instead of waiting for fully mature quantum computers to emerge, researchers have developed hybrid classical/quantum algorithms to extract the most performance -- and potentially quantum advantage ...

A new algorithm that fast forwards simulations could bring greater use ability to current and near-term quantum computers, opening the way for applications to run past strict time limits that ...

Ever wondered how computers multiply huge numbers with hundreds or even thousands of digits? The process may seem simple, but ...

In this video, we delve into the fascinating world of big number multiplication and explore how computers perform this task ...

The claim a quantum computer had finally achieved something traditional computers cannot has been challenged using superior algorithm design.

One of the most well-established and disruptive uses for a future quantum computer is the ability to crack encryption. A new algorithm could significantly lower the barrier to achieving this. Despite ...

Toshiba research scientists have created an algorithm that can outpace laser-based quantum computers.

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

When quantum computers become commonplace, current cryptographic systems will become obsolete. Scientists are racing to get ahead of the problem and keep our data secure.
