Abstract: This paper introduces a new discrete StarFish Optimization Algorithm (D-SFOA) to solve a complex discrete Symmetric Travelling Salesman Problem (STSP). The discrete SFOA algorithm is ...

HeLLFIRE MISSILES used to strike terrorist hideouts in the mountains of Afghanistan. Now they rain down on the sparkling waters of the Caribbean. Small boats and their crews, alleged drug-traffickers, ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

This project implements a solution for the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) using bitmasking and dynamic programming. It calculates the shortest possible route that visits every city exactly once and ...

Researchers have successfully used a quantum algorithm to solve a complex century-old mathematical problem long considered impossible for even the most powerful conventional supercomputers. The ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

A massive spike in brute-force attacks targeted Fortinet SSL VPNs earlier this month, followed by a switch to FortiManager, marked a deliberate shift in targeting that has historically preceded new ...

"This is what oversight looks like," Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said. Senate Democrats on Wednesday said they are attempting to force the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files through a ...
