For decades, researchers have worked toward scalable data storage in DNA’s four nucleotides (A, T, G and C). The technology, once mastered, would yield millions of times greater efficiency, but impediments in reliability and read/write speeds have stymied the arrival of a true paradigm shift in archival storage. Now, a team led by researchers from […]

Scientists from Honda Research Institute USA, Inc. (HRI-US) have synthesized atomically thin “nanoribbons” – atomic scale thickness, ribbon-shaped materials – that have broad implications for the future of quantum electronics, the area of physics dealing with the effects of quantum mechanics on the behavior of electrons in matter. The post Honda Research Institute Synthesizes Nanomaterials for […]

Researchers have discovered a hard-to-observe type of spin in a quantum mechanical system. In physics, a quantum mechanical system is a set of components that interact at the quantum scale. This is the realm of atoms and subatomic particles such as those defined in the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Spins are magnetic particles in […]

How do these devices work? Broadly, a quantum network must interface with a quantum computer (or other quantum device), capture and faithfully transmit a qubit-based information stream to another device able to use the data. The post Quantum Networking and Clustering – What Is It? Why Should You Care? Who’s Aliro? appeared first on HPCwire.

The National AI Initiative Office (NAIIO), part of The Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), has established the AI Researchers Portal. The post National AI Initiative Office Launches AI Researchers Portal appeared first on HPCwire.

While there are now a slew of approved, effective vaccines that curb COVID-19 infections, there is only one FDA-approved therapeutic to fight ongoing COVID-19 infection: remdesivir. This relative lack of medications for COVID-19 patients has left researchers hunting for alternatives, ideally from known pharmaceutical compounds for easy deployment. Now, researchers at the San Diego Supercomputer […]

Researchers are developing new pathways to create and protect quantum coherence. Doing so will enable exquisitely sensitive measurement and information processing devices that function at ambient or even extreme conditions. The post Berkeley Lab Research Team Unlocks Secret Path to a Quantum Future appeared first on HPCwire.

The Quantum Economic Development Consortium (QED-C) announced the public availability of an open-source suite of application-oriented performance benchmark programs for quantum computing. This suite of quantum computing benchmarking tools was developed by the QED-C Standards and Performance Metrics Technical Advisory Committee (Standards TAC) and is the result of a multi-year collaborative effort by QED-C member […]

IBM announced a suite of environmental intelligence software that leverages AI to help organizations prepare for and respond to weather and climate risks that may disrupt business, more easily assess their own impact on the planet, and reduce the complexity of regulatory compliance and reporting. The post IBM Unveils AI-Driven Software for Environmental Intelligence appeared first […]

Space weather has been getting a lot of attention lately, with research from University College London, the Princeton Physics Plasma Laboratory, the University of Alabama in Huntsville and NASA each getting their own HPCwire headlines over the past year or so for supercomputer-powered space weather research. Now, researchers from UCLA are joining the fray with […]
