Local search method is a rising star for solving combinatorial optimization problems in recent years, and many state-of-the-art local search-based incomplete Maximum Satisfiability (MaxSAT) solvers ...

Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. For computer scientists, solving problems is a bit like mountaineering. First they must choose a problem to solve—akin to identifying a ...
