However, it can also be used for advanced secondary school students, and it can be used at the start of graduate school for those … Publication Date: November, 2016 Read More
	The Shortest-Path Problem Hector Ortega-Arranz, Diego R. Llanos, Arturo Gonzalez-Escribano Many applications in different domains need to calculate the shortest-path between two points in a graph. In this paper we describe this shortest path problem in detail, starting with the classic Dijkstra’s algorithm and moving to more advanced solut… Publication Date: 12/01/2014 Read More
	Storing Clocked Programs Inside DNA Jessica Chang, Dennis Shasha In the history of modern computation, large mechanical calculators preceded computers. A person would sit there punching keys according to a procedure and a number would eventually appear. Once calculators became fast enough, it became obvious that t… Publication Date: 01/01/2011 Read More
