Instead, Karatsuba showed it could be done in just O (n^1.58), a revelation that would pave the way for faster computing, cryptography, and algorithm design.

But he is worried that a culture in computer science to focus more on the end, rather than means, means intellectual property rights are often disregarded.

Researchers at FIU’s College of Engineering and Computing have developed an encryption algorithm to defend videos from attackers with access to the world's most powerful computers. The encryption ...
