Quantum computers promise enormous computational power, but the nature of quantum states makes computation and data ...

Rice computer scientists have developed algorithms that account for quantum noise that is not just random, but malicious ...

Before computer science, there were equations, formulas and theorems. Computer science allowed sequences of operations, processes, and procedures to be developed to process complex problems.

An algorithm used to inform healthcare decisions for millions of people shows significant racial bias in its predictions of the health risks of black patients.

One computer scientist’s “stunning” proof is the first progress in 50 years on one of the most famous questions in computer science.

Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs ...

Like it or not, much of what we encounter online is mediated by computer-run algorithms — complex formulas that help determine our Facebook feeds, Netflix recommendations, Spotify playlists or ...

Major in computer science and you become an experienced problem solver who is well-versed in computing theory and familiar with a variety of programming paradigms.

Computer scientists are now seriously studying these "algorithms in nature" to generate new solutions to basic engineering problems.
