Quantum computer research is advancing at a rapid pace. Today's devices, however, still have significant limitations: For example, the length of a quantum computation is severely limited—that is, the ...

Computer scientist Lance Fortnow writes that by embracing the computations that surround us, we can begin to understand and tame our seemingly random world. Bohr: Algebra is like sheet music. The ...

The proposal that evolution could be used as a metaphor for problem solving came with the invention of the computer 1. In the 1970s and 1980s the principal idea was developed into different ...

The wisdom of the crowd has become so powerful and so accessible via the Internet that it has become a resource in its own right. Various services now tap into this rich supply of human cognition, ...

Explore how multi-party computation (MPC) protocols enable secure threshold signatures, driving trust and security in blockchain and crypto systems.

Imagine you’re on a quest to understand the very nature of computation. You’re deep in the wilderness, far from any paths, and inscrutable messages are carved into the trunks of trees all around you — ...

This course gives an introduction to the mathematical foundations of computation. The course will look at Turing machines, universal computation, the Church-Turing thesis, the halting problem and ...

Physicists and computer scientists have recently expanded the modern theory of the thermodynamics of computation. By combining approaches from statistical physics and computer science, the researchers ...

The Computation in Architecture at the Royal Danish Academy examines contemporary modelling and fabrication within architecture, whilst questioning the role of the architect amid the climate crisis.
