Abstract: The reliability and performance of concurrency are severely affected by deadlocks in concurrent systems. An efficient deadlock detection algorithm is needed to ensure that any deadlock cases ...

The Tarjan's Algorithm is a depth-first search based algorithm used to find all strongly connected components (SCCs) in a directed graph. The SCCs form subgraphs where every vertex is reachable from ...

Three new books warn against turning into the person the algorithm thinks you are. Like a lot of Netflix subscribers, I find that my personal feed tends to be hit or miss. Usually more miss. The ...

Companies, nonprofit organizations, and governments design algorithms to learn and predict user preferences. They embed these algorithms in recommendation systems that help consumers make choices ...

Elon Musk calls it “the algorithm,” a distillation of lessons learned while relentlessly increasing production capacity at Tesla’s Nevada and Fremont factories. According to Walter Isaacson in his new ...

I’ve been losing a lot of time to YouTube lately. I don’t even know why. In a down moment, I just find myself heading to the homepage and watching whatever comes up (usually weird Tears of the Kingdom ...
