As with all "classic algorithms," its output was deterministic: it produced the same result for the same input every time. It would always finish, and it always produced the optimal, correct result.

In fact, computer scientists often find it easier to develop a deterministic algorithm by starting with a randomized version and then “de-randomizing” it. “Once I have it, I suddenly see a very ...

A new algorithm brings together the advantages of randomness and deterministic processes to reliably construct large prime numbers.

Twitter recently shared the details of why their RPC framework Finagle implements a client-side load balancing using a deterministic aperture algorithm for their microservices architecture ...

We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multistage assembly problem. These inventory models ...
