A new technique breaks Dijkstra's 70-year-old record: it finds routes faster in huge networks, changing graph theory forever.

Edsger Dijkstra, one of the moving forces behind the acceptance of computer programming as a scientific discipline, has died. But his legacy lives on in every computer. Rupert started off as a nerdy ...

Created by Dutch computer scientist Edsger Dijkstra in the 1950s, Dijkstra's Algorithm sets out to solve what is known in graph theory as a shortest path problem. What Dijkstra built would become the ...
