Before computer science, there were equations, formulas and theorems. Computer science allowed sequences of operations, processes, and procedures to be developed to process complex problems.

Quantum researchers have deployed a new algorithm to manage noise in qubits in real time. The method can be applied to a wide ...

A global push for more computer science in classrooms is starting to bear fruit ...

Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs ...

An algorithm used to inform healthcare decisions for millions of people shows significant racial bias in its predictions of the health risks of black patients.

Yes, “algorithms” can be biased. Here’s why Op-ed: a computer scientist weighs in on the downsides of AI.

U of Texas at Austin has stopped using a machine-learning system to evaluate applicants for its Ph.D. in computer science. Critics say the system exacerbates existing inequality in the field.

In recent years, ethical issues in computer science such as hacking, data collection, and algorithmic bias have profoundly impacted our culture.
