The National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is a powerhouse for computing in science research, enabling the work of nearly 11,000 scientists every year. Research powered by NERSC systems is helping transform our understanding of everything from fundamental physics to deadly viruses and paving the way for artificial intelligence […]
Looking to brush up on the basics of quantum computing? The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has posted a mini primer that explains many aspects of quantum information science in layman terms. The post What is Quantum Anyway? Check Out NIST Primer appeared first on HPCwire.
A significant advance in the use of machine learning (ML) algorithms could accelerate fusion energy research. Previous research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has shown how physicists can utilize machine learning techniques to conduct their research, such as tracking plasma turbulence during fusion experiments. The post Berkeley Lab Boosts Fusion Research Using ML […]
As market analysts predict that up to 20 million humanoid robots could be deployed in industrial settings by 2030, igus GmbH last week unveiled its first humanoid, Iggy Rob. The motion plastics specialist said it designed the robot to support industrial production, service environments, and transport tasks. The post igus introduces Iggy Rob low-cost humanoid […]
Large language models (LLMs) often require substantial computing resources that are usually met by high-performance hardware. These systems are built to handle vast amounts of data and execute the intricate calculations that power these models. The post Research Suggests Powerful AI Models Now Possible Without High-End Hardware appeared first on HPCwire.
For 14 years, the RBR50 Robotics Innovation Awards [has] honored the most innovative robotics companies, technologies, and applications from around the world. This year we brought back three major awards: Robot of the Year, Application of the Year, and Startup of the Year. We added a fourth major honor: Robots for Good, which recognizes a […]
Over the next two years, the number of liquid-cooled data centers is projected to grow from less than 1 percent of the market to about 30 percent of all installations. The reason behind such spectacular growth is clear – the power of the processors is growing rapidly every 6 months, and so is the power […]
Robot orders in North America remained essentially flat in the first quarter of 2025, according to the Association for Advancing Automation (A3). The organization found that companies purchased 9,064 units valued at $580.7 million in Q1 of 2025. The post A3: North American robot orders remain steady to start 2025 appeared first on The Robot […]
