The Fugaku supercomputer, jointly developed by RIKEN and Fujitsu, has successfully retained the top spot for four consecutive terms on all four of the major high-performance computer rankings. This includes the TOP500 list as well as the HPCG, a performance ranking for computing methods often used for real-world applications, HPL-AI, which ranks supercomputers based on […]
A team of researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory and Stony Brook University have devised a new quantum algorithm to compute the lowest energies of molecules at specific configurations during chemical reactions, including when their chemical bonds are broken. As described in Physics Review Research, compared to similar existing algorithms, […]
An ultrathin invention could make future computing, sensing and encryption technologies remarkably smaller and more powerful by helping scientists control a strange but useful phenomenon of quantum mechanics, according to new research recently published in the journal Science. Source: Sandia National Laboratories The post Researchers Develop Ultrathin ‘Metasurface’ Device for Quantum Tech appeared first on […]
Artificial Intelligence has been a key talking point in the high-performance computing and computer science communities for decades now. The post It’s Time for Real-World AI on the Edge appeared first on HPCwire.
The supercomputer of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), MareNostrum 4, offers daily forecasts to the scientific committee of the Canary Islands Volcanic Emergency Plan (PEVOLCA) on the movements that the emissions arising from the Cumbre Vieja volcano on La Palma will have. These forecasts come from a collaboration between the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and […]
Researchers at Technology Innovation Institute (TII) in the United Arab Emirates have demonstrated a new approach to simulate cryptographic hacking algorithms on a quantum simulator that runs on classical computers. One of the key discoveries was a way to model the complexity of such computations that could be scaled to a full-sized quantum computer. The […]
Given its broad utility, it’s no surprise that light plays a critical role in enabling 21st century quantum information applications. For example, scientists use laser light to precisely control atoms, turning them into ultra-sensitive measures of time, acceleration, and even gravity. Currently, such early quantum technology is limited by size—state-of-the-art systems would not fit on a […]
To improve climate simulations, scientists are looking to the potential of artificial intelligence (AI). AI has offered profound insights in fields from materials science to manufacturing, and climate researchers are excited to explore how AI can be used to revolutionize how the Earth system, and especially its water cycle, can be simulated in order to dramatically improve our understanding […]
Researchers looking for a less cumbersome experience moving data between compute and storage resources have a far better option since the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign introduced Taiga. And, archiving the storage, provided by the closely coupled Granite system, will come at a better price. It all makes […]
Scientists know that plants emit chemicals into the soil to communicate information to other plants. These chemical messages, sent through fungal networks, may warn plants to defend against threats in their environment or to stop encroaching on another plant’s space. Scientists such as Jonathan Morris and Kathryn Morris of Xavier University are seeking to learn […]
