Obit Professor Charles Anthony Richard Hoare has died at the age of 92. Known to many computer science students as C. A. R. Hoare, and to his friends as Tony, he was not only one of the greatest minds ...
Two popular quantum computing algorithms for problems in chemistry may have very limited use even as quantum hardware ...
Computing and data shape nearly every aspect of modern life. In recent years, efforts to expand data and computing education in K-12 settings have grown rapidly but unevenly. A new National Academies ...
Long before modern computers existed, scientists and philosophers wondered whether machines could imitate human reasoning. This video traces the evolution of that idea from Aristotle’s logic and ...
Northwestern University engineers have developed the first modular robots with athletic intelligence. They can be combined ...
Many engineering challenges come down to the same headache—too many knobs to turn and too few chances to test them. Whether tuning a power grid or designing a safer vehicle, each evaluation can be ...
Karthik Sankaranarayanan trained in two quite different scientific subfields as a graduate student and as a postdoctoral ...
New approaches are being devised and tested to address the talent shortage. Leveraging AI in design tools will help engineers become more efficient, and potentially could reduce the time it takes to ...
Something strange happened at University of California campuses this fall. For the first time since the dot-com crash, computer science enrollment dropped. System-wide, it fell 6% last year after ...
It was once a degree to some of the highest-paying jobs in the world, but now the University of California is seeing a drop in enrollment for computer science. Part of the reason is that tech ...
