Scientists have created the world’s first working nanoscale electromotor, according to research published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology. The science team designed a turbine engineered from DNA that is powered by hydrodynamic flow inside a nanopore, a nanometer-sized hole in a membrane of solid-state silicon nitride. The post Scientists Create Advanced DNA Nanomotor Using Supercomputing, […]
IonQ , a leader in the quantum computing industry, announced that it hit its target technical milestone of 35 algorithmic qubits (#AQ) a full year ahead of schedule. This important milestone was achieved on IonQ Forte and leveraged the unique advantages of IonQ’s quantum computers, including high-fidelity trapped ion qubits and the industry’s only all-to-all […]
Researchers at the University of Chicago’s Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME), Argonne National Laboratory, and the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia have developed a new computational tool to describe how the atoms within quantum materials behave when they absorb and emit light. The tool will be released as part of the open-source software […]
Room temperature quantum computing and sensing has long been an area an area of intense pursuit; if accomplished, it will simplify and expand quantum information science (QIS) applications. This week, a group of researchers from Japan report a breakthrough using exitons in a metal-organic framework. The post Researchers Report Advance in Achieving Room Temp Entanglement […]
Overprovisioning clusters is easy but comes at great expense. Installing systems that meet this demand are hard to optimize, scale, and manage on a day-to-day basis. As such, those undertaking such efforts must carefully plan for and address every step of the process – designing, building, deploying, and managing high-performance clusters for AI. The post […]
Given the rapid uptake and untested effectiveness of AI technologies, HPCwire asked Steve Conway, senior analyst at Intersect360 Research, to comment on government attempts to regulate AI and what effect these might have on HPC. Conway has closely tracked AI progress for more than a decade. He has spoken and published widely on this topic, […]
When you push a button to open a garage door, it doesn’t open every garage door in the neighborhood; that’s because the opener and the door are communicating using a specific microwave frequency, a frequency no other nearby door is using. Researchers from the University of Chicago, the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National […]
This photograph of Neptune, one of the ice giant planets addressed in a paper recently published by researchers at UC Berkeley, was reconstructed from two images taken by NASA Voyager 2. Credit: NASA What’s going on inside the most distant planets in our solar system? The ice giant planets Uranus, Neptune, and sub-Neptune exoplanets are […]
The ocean provides about half of the oxygen necessary for humans to survive. Scientists at Oregon State University wanted to better understand how plankton populations in the ocean will respond to climate change. To study plankton populations, they developed a new way of photographing large populations of these creatures at sea, using PSC’s Bridges-2 system […]
Clustering resources for faster performance is not new. In the early days of clustering, the Beowulf project demonstrated that high performance was achievable from commodity hardware. These days, the “Beowulf cluster meme” gets used every time some new technology is deployed. For instance, “Imagine a Beowulf cluster of Frontier systems.” Funny enough, but a little […]
