We introduce a novel approach to solving dynamic programming problems, such as those in many economic models, on a quantum annealer, a specialized device that performs combinatorial optimization ...

We present a dynamic programming algorithm for solving this so-called single-sink, fixed-charge, multiple-choice transportation problem exactly. The method exploits heuristics and lower bounds to ...

Thinking about getting good at competitive programming, especially on a platform like CodeChef? It can seem like ...

We consider a broad class of stochastic dynamic programming problems that are amenable to relaxation via decomposition. These problems comprise multiple subproblems that are independent of each other ...

Find out how today's engineers succeed by growing their technical abilities, improving how they communicate, and staying open ...

Programming is Problem Solving When we bring programming to math class, we add a new layer of problem solving: translating mathematical problems/ideas to execute them in code. This often requires ...
