What do encrypted messages, recognizing speech commands and running simulations to predict the weather have in common? They all rely on matrix multiplication for accurate calculations. DeepMind, an ...

From greedy shortcuts to dynamic programming guarantees, algorithm design techniques are the backbone of efficient problem-solving in computer science. Understanding when and how to apply each ...

Artificial intelligence learned how to generate text and art better than ever before, while computer scientists developed algorithms that solved long-standing problems. In 2023, artificial ...

“Let’s do it!” That was Alexis Johnson’s reaction when she saw professional learning opportunities focused on computational thinking. A first grade teacher with no formal CS background, she jumped at ...

Like more than a few faculty colleagues before her, computer scientist Amber Wagner, Ph.D., started out by creating an AI assignment that was designed to flop. Teaching a course on the C++ programming ...

If someone asks you to determine whether two objects are the same, it might seem like a trivial request. In most everyday cases, a quick glance is enough for you to render an accurate judgment. But in ...

Computer science involves much more than writing code. It blends technical knowledge —like programming, algorithms and data systems — with soft skills, such as communication and problem-solving.

Nobel Prize–winning economist Simon Johnson said AI has "substantially wiped out" coding as a reliable source of opportunity.

Connecting the dots: For the first time in more than two decades years, computer science enrollment across the University of California system has fallen, a drop some educators see as a reflection of ...

As artificial intelligence reshapes industries at a rapid pace, computer science students are entering a more competitive and evolving job market. According to Federal Reserve Bank of New York data ...
