Science & Technology How Set Theory Evolved From Hausdorff Until Today In his work on set theory, Felix Hausdorff set the tone for modern mathematics at a time when no general foundation for the different mathematical disciplines existed.
Science & Technology Cryptography: Decoding the Mathematics of Secret Messages How can we keep private information private in the digital age? The answer to this question, cryptography, is a hybrid discipline using mathematics, computer science, and statistics. It has a rich history and is bound to become even more important in the future.
Science & Technology Automated Vehicles: Towards a Zero Accident Future? Experts widely agree that increased automation will lead to increased traffic safety – but can autonomous cars really eliminate traffic accidents once and for all?
Science & Technology Why Algorithms Suck and Analog Computers are the Future Analog computing, which was the predominant form of high-performance computing well into the 1970s, has largely been forgotten since today’s stored program digital computers took over. But the time is ripe to change this.
