NP-completeness also assures us that certain advances in protein folding (or box packing or Sudoku solving) would destroy the digital economy.

We consider the problem of correlated data gathering by a network with a sink node and a tree-based communication structure, where the goal is to minimize the total transmission cost of transporting ...

When Cook proved in 1971 that SAT is NP-complete, the problem was considered computationally hard. Over the past 30 years, however, we have made f tremendous progress in SAT solving, which is today an ...

Pierre Poilievre’s complete dominance of the Conservative party leadership race is undeniable no matter who your favoured candidate is.

It was a litmus test of sorts, identifying the class of what became known as “NP-complete” problems: a solution to any would crack them all. Papadimitriou thinks of NP-completeness as a ...

A new standard definition of complete coronary artery revascularization was proposed by researchers associated with the ISCHEMIA trial. Anatomic completeness of revascularization, according to ...

Quick verification A quantum computer has been shown to be faster than a classical one at verifying the solution to an NP-complete problem when provided with only a part of that solution.
