Automata theory and temporal logic together form a foundational pillar in the design and analysis of data processing systems. At its core, automata theory provides abstract models—ranging from finite ...

Some computers are easy to spot. Artificial, human-built computers like those found in smartphones and laptops are abstract ...

Theory of Computation offers a rigorous mathematical framework that underpins our understanding of what can be computed and how efficiently these computations may be performed. It encompasses ...

Lance Fortnow on the current status and future outlook of solving the P-NP problem.

Soon after it was released a few short years ago, I began to delve into Steven Wolfram's new book, "A Fundamental Theory of Physics." I have followed his work since the early '90s when I first used ...

Our era is defined by a constant flow of information. Data from smartphones, wearables and environmental sensors, connected to sharing and analysis platforms, accompany us daily, creating a digital ...
