For small genomes, it is possible to study genetic variation by assembling whole genomes and then comparing them via whole-genome comparison 6,7. For large genomes, such as the human genome, complete ...

Graphs are everywhere. In discrete mathematics, they are structures that show the connections between points, much like a public transportation network. Mathematicians have long sought to develop ...

Two computer scientists found — in the unlikeliest of places — just the idea they needed to make a big leap in graph theory. This past October, as Jacob Holm and Eva Rotenberg were thumbing through a ...

Created by Dutch computer scientist Edsger Dijkstra in the 1950s, Dijkstra's Algorithm sets out to solve what is known in graph theory as a shortest path problem. What Dijkstra built would become the ...

Algorithms give computers step-by-step instructions to complete tasks accurately.Good algorithms improve software speed, ...

A new open-source library by Nvidia could be the secret ingredient to advancing analytics and making graph databases faster. The key: parallel processing on Nvidia GPUs. Nvidia has long ago stopped ...
