Moderna, Inc., a biotechnology company pioneering messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics and vaccines, and IBM today announced an agreement under which Moderna will explore next generation technologies including quantum computing and artificial intelligence to advance and accelerate mRNA research and science. The post Moderna and IBM to Explore Quantum Computing and Generative AI for mRNA Science […]
The Open Compute Project Foundation (OCP), the nonprofit organization bringing hyperscale innovations to all, announces that AWS has contributed a new edge gateway base specification to the OCP that, which is targeted for deployments supporting cloud-delivered managed edge services in various market segments, including retail. Through additional AWS contributions, this edge gateway will also support […]
When he joined the Ohio University faculty in 2015, Sumit Sharma found a new application for his expertise in molecular modeling and simulations: understanding pipeline corrosion. The post OSC: Molecular Modeling Expert Tackles Pipeline Corrosion with Supercomputing Resources appeared first on HPCwire.
Researchers at Meta, MIT and other institutions connected servers with a dozen Nvidia GPUs with optical switches and a robotic arm, devising a new interconnect that could be used for machine learning. The fabric, called “TopoOpt,” can create network topologies on the fly depending on computing needs. The technology comes as high-performance computers are being […]
Advances in biological imaging have given scientists unprecedented datasets with extremely high resolutions, yet data interpretation tools are working overtime to keep up. This is particularly evident in the case of cryo-electron tomograms (cryo-ET), where the samples exhibit inherently low contrast due to the limited electron dose that can be applied during imaging before radiation […]
If you’ve ever been in a supercomputer datacenter, you’ll know that they don’t tend to be quiet places – but now, supercomputing is helping make some machinery hum quieter. ebm-papst, a German fan and electric motor manufacturer, is applying the Hawk supercomputer at the High-Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS) to understand how and why its […]
Predicting the properties of a molecule or material requires calculating the collective behavior of its electrons. Such predictions could one day help researchers develop new pharmaceuticals or design materials with sought-after properties such as superconductivity. The problem is that electrons can become ‘quantum mechanically’ entangled with one another, meaning they can no longer be treated […]
As semiconductor devices become ever smaller, researchers are exploring two-dimensional (2D) materials for potential applications in transistors and optoelectronics. Controlling the flow of electricity and heat through these materials is key to their functionality, but first we need to understand the details of those behaviors at atomic scales. The post Electronic Bridge Allows Rapid Energy […]
Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory report they can precisely rotate a single molecule that small on demand. The key ingredient is a single atom of europium, a rare earth element. It rests at the center of a complex of different atoms and gives the molecule many potential applications. The […]
An international team of scientists have demonstrated a leap in preserving the quantum coherence of quantum dot spin qubits as part of the global push for practical quantum networks and quantum computers. These technologies will be transformative to a broad range of industries and research efforts: from the security of information transfer, through the search […]
