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 […]
As part of a series aimed at sharing best practices in preparing applications for Aurora, Argonne National Laboratory is highlighting researchers’ efforts to optimize codes to run efficiently on graphics processing units. Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods are ideal candidates for the next generation of material-design tools, which target not only simple bulk properties but […]
MIT developed a system that improves the speed and agility of its Cheetah robot as it jumped across gaps in terrain. | Credit: MIT A loping cheetah dashes across a rolling field, bounding over sudden gaps in the rugged terrain. The movement may look effortless, but getting a robot to move this way is an […]
Quantum Machines, creator of the first universal quantum computing cloud infrastructure, announced an investment from Qualcomm Ventures LLC. The investment in Quantum Machines is the first by Qualcomm Ventures in the Quantum Computing space and is an extension of the company’s Series B round announced earlier this year. The post Qualcomm Ventures Invests in Quantum […]
