Network design problems constitute a critical area in operations research and engineering, where the objective is to construct or upgrade network infrastructures optimally under a range of constraints ...

Algorithm design and analysis is fundamental to all areas of computer science and gives a rigorous framework for the study optimization. This course provides an introduction to algorithm design ...

Genetic algorithms (GAs) have emerged as a powerful optimisation tool in product design and user-centred engineering, drawing inspiration from the principles of biological evolution. They use ...

Programmer Joel Simon has created an experimental research project, Evolving Floor Plans, to explore speculative and optimized plan layouts using generative design. Interested in the intersection of ...

OptoGPT is a new algorithm that harnesses the computer architecture underpinning ChatGPT. Its creators say that it will enable researchers and engineers to design optical multilayer film structures ...

Reactor radiation-shielding optimization methods are proposed by combining many-objective evolutionary algorithms with particle-transport calculation software that can optimize the reactor ...

How should we measure the accuracy of predictions? If the weather forecast calls for a 10% chance of rain, and it rains, was that a bad forecast? How would you explain what a "good forecast" is to a ...

In January, I taught a Continuing Education Center online class called "Programmable Logic: How Do They Do That?" One of the topics I covered is how place and route software works. This is one of the ...

Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) introduced today a reference design and algorithm that enables small-form-factor, low-power smoke detector designs to be rapidly prototyped and brought to market faster at a ...

Scientists predict the COVID-19 pandemic is on its way to becoming endemic. The rising spread of COVID-19 variants such as Delta has helped infect unvaccinated and some vaccinated individuals.
