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 […]

X chromosome inactivation equalizes the active X chromosomes between mammals with two X chromosomes and mammals with one X and one Y chromosome – however, the mechanisms of this inactivation have not been understood at a granular level due to the coarseness of experimental imaging. Now, researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) have modeled […]

A team from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Stanford University and Purdue University developed and demonstrated a novel, fully functional quantum local area network, or QLAN, to enable real-time adjustments to information shared with geographically isolated systems at ORNL using entangled photons passing through optical fiber. The post ORNL Researchers Reach […]

Last year, Summit was one of the first major supercomputing deployments in the fight against COVID-19, heralding a deluge that crescendoed with the cumulative efforts of virtually every research system in the world. While news around COVID-oriented supercomputing research has quieted somewhat since the introduction of highly effective vaccines, Bronson Messer – director of science […]

A group of scientists have reported entangling a tough tiny critter – the Tardigrade [i]– with two superconducting qubits. Tardigrades (aka water bears), it turns out, are not merely hardy but also nearly immune to inhospitable environments such as outer space…and, of course, dilution refrigerators housing quantum computing processors. The post You Must be Kidding […]
