...Gross’s section for Physics 15a, agreed that the lists generated by the software were very helpful. “Our textbook wasn’t very clear, so the Wikipedia links Alex gave us allowed me to understand the concepts,” Meyer said. The algorithm for the software was published recently in the Proceedings of Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies. Besides being a resource for students looking for information online, Wissner-Gross thinks that this software could be a valuable tool for researchers. “Often researchers...
...computer power to predict the direction of plane fares. That helps travelers figure out the optimum time to buy a ticket. It was founded by Oren Etzioni, who created the Web's first meta-search site (it scans multiple search engines) and first shopping-comparison tool.

From those trillions of combinations, it figures out whether you should buy a ticket now or wait for prices to drop...
