Tessellations aren’t just eye-catching patterns—they can be used to crack complex mathematical problems. By repeatedly reflecting shapes to tile a surface, researchers uncovered a method that links ...

Researchers have developed a new computational approach that uncovers possible drugs for specific cellular targets for ...

Mathematics education must move beyond marks and memorisation, focusing instead on reasoning, problem-solving, and creative ...

We use heuristics to solve computationally difficult problems where optimal solutions are too expensive to deploy, hard to manage, or otherwise inefficient. Our prior work, MetaOpt, shows many of the ...

One day in November, a product strategist we’ll call Michelle (not her real name), logged into her LinkedIn account and switched her gender to male. She also changed her name to Michael, she told ...

Spotify Technology SA will begin testing a new feature that allows users to type an idea for a playlist into the app and receive a unique set of songs based on their historical taste and behavior. The ...

Math teachers have to accommodate high school students' different approaches to problem-solving. RJ Sangosti/MediaNews Group/The Denver Post via Getty Images Among high school students and adults, ...

(THE CONVERSATION) Among high school students and adults, girls and women are much more likely to use traditional, step-by-step algorithms to solve basic math problems – such as lining up numbers to ...

The biggest bottleneck for engineering leaders isn’t writing code, but waiting for validation — especially across time zones. AI eliminates this bottleneck by testing code the moment it’s written, ...

Thanks to computer numerical control (CNC) fabrication technologies, the method may also be applied to design-laminated timber gridshells. Credit: ©2025 Masaaki Miki and Toby Mitchell CC-BY-ND A new ...

But there’s one spec that has caused some concern among Ars staffers and others with their eyes on the Steam Machine: The GPU comes with just 8GB of dedicated graphics RAM, an amount that is steadily ...
