Description:

Graphs like these explore algorithm discovery and improvement such as the number of new algorithm families discovered by decade, improvements to algorithm families, and complexity classes of discovered algorithms. (Image courtesy of Sherry and Thompson. License: CC BY.)

Alt text:
Multiple graphs. First graph is algorithm families discovered by decade. Second is percentage of families improved per decade. Third is percentage of algorithms by time complexity. Fourth is diagram showing yearly probability of algorithm changing complexity.
