Complexity theory is a branch of computer science that studies the resources required to solve computational problems, particularly focusing on the classification of problems based on their inherent ...

Recently, a research team from Hokkaido University made significant progress in the complexity study of the Hitting Geodesic Intervals (HGI) problem. The HGI problem aims to find a small set of ...

The most widely used technique for finding the largest or smallest values of a math function turns out to be a fundamentally difficult computational problem. Many aspects of modern applied research ...

Research teams from energy giant ExxonMobil and IBM have been working together to find quantum solutions to one of the most complex problems of our time: managing the tens of thousands of merchant ...

In this paper, we address an interesting variant of the vehicle routing problem with time windows (VRPTW) faced by the China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC). The CNPC owns a limited number of ...

Researchers adapt model predictive control from engineering to epidemic response, balancing health and economic costs under ...

In 1994, a mathematician figured out how to make a quantum computer do something that no ordinary classical computer could. The work revealed that, in principle, a machine based on the rules of ...

Complexity theory is a fundamental branch of theoretical computer science that categorises computational problems according to their inherent difficulty and the resources required to solve them. At ...
