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...

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,...

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....

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...
