David Papworth, a 30-year veteran of Intel, on what led to the P6 microprocessor and how that changed the microarchitectural paradigm.
Maximum Flow Through a Network: A Storied Problem and a Groundbreaking Solution
“Almost-Linear-Time Algorithms for Maximum Flow and Minimum-Cost Flow,” by Li Chen et al., comes within striking distance of answering the question: “Does maximum flow have a scalable algorithm?”
Almost-Linear-Time Algorithms for Maximum Flow and Minimum-Cost Flow
We present an algorithm that computes exact maximum flows and minimum-cost flows on directed graphs with m edges and polynomially bounded integral demands, costs, and capacities in m1+o(1) time.
Emulating the behavior of exotic quantum states may give quantum computing a better way of squeezing out troublesome noise and errors.

The Israeli Social Protest from a Data Science Perspective: Part One
The challenge of data.
Understanding what is taking place inside the human body is at the heart of medicine. For centuries, scientists have looked for better ways to detect problems, conditions, and diseases ranging from high blood pressure to cancer. An array of sensing devices—from thermometers and blood pressure cuffs to blood oximeters—have made it easier to monitor vital […]
