Quantum computers promise to outstrip their conventional counterparts in a range of demanding tasks by harnessing […]
Elizabethtown College sends used computer technology overseas to Ukrainian students in need | Local News
Elizabethtown College sent a mix of 93 used computers, screens and mice off to Ukraine to help students without necessary technology for their education. All levels of education in Ukraine have been greatly disrupted by the war, said Andrew Kinsel, founder and owner of the Ukranian nonprofit organization, Ukraine Protection […]
Quantum Computing Inc to Acquire AI Platform Millionways for Personality Insights
On May 22, 2023, it was announced that Quantum Computing Inc. had signed a letter of intent to acquire millionways, a privately held artificial intelligence platform based in New York City. Millionways is known for its exceptional development of AI algorithms that provide users with feedback on their emotional state […]
Choosing the Appropriate Computer-on-Module Standard
May 22, 2023 Blog COM-HPC is the new high-performance Computer-on-Module standard for modular edge server and edge client designs. The smallest size Mini is hardly larger than a credit card. Unless developers are true embedded and edge computing experts, evaluating and choosing between the different form factor standards can be […]
Local Governments See Explosion of Edge Computing Devices
Surveillance and the Edge Computing Explosion Quite a lot of edge computing occurs with a centralized video surveillance network managed in the cloud. The camera processes data and sends it to a gateway device. And so, de facto edge computing grows as more processing continues at different layers of the […]
Memcomputer chips could solve tasks that defeat conventional computers
Traditional computer chip designs are reaching their limit Yuichiro Chino/Moment RF/Getty Images The first practical example of a new kind of computer can complete calculations in minutes that would take a standard version longer than the age of the universe. This so-called digital memcomputer, which combines data storage and processing […]
10 European quantum computing startups approaching superposition
Quantum computing is a technology that uses the laws of quantum mechanics and applies it to solving problems that are, well, otherwise unsolvable in the world of classical computing. We’ve seen not only a number of new startups blossom in recent years, but the funding they’ve collected, as well as […]
Sound vibrations can encode and process data like quantum computers do
Sound vibrations can mimic properties of quantum computing Shutterstock/DmitrySteshenko Some properties of quantum computers can be imitated with sound trapped in a simple mechanical device. This has the advantage of being less fragile than quantum computers, while still replicating some of their properties. Quantum computers could eventually solve problems that […]
Chip Charts Course for Quantum-Computer Scaling
Quantum computers can, in theory, find answers to problems that classical computers would take eons to solve, but researchers currently face great challenges scaling them up for practical use. Recently, a quantum-computing startup unveiled the first digital superconducting microchip to control quantum processors, which the company suggests might help qubits […]
USC invests big in AI as world grapples with the new technology
“In addition to the technical competence that we want our students to have in this area, we want them to understand also the importance [of] the ethical decision-making that underlies many of these technologies,” says Yannis Yortsos, dean of the USC Viterbi School of Engineering.

New material opens the door for energy-efficient computing
Over the last decade, with the introduction of increasingly complex artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, the demand for computing power has risen exponentially. New, energy-efficient hardware designs could help meet this demand while reducing computing’s energy use, supporting faster processing, and allowing AI training to take place within the device itself. […]
Terahertz Laser Pulses Transform Ferromagnetism
Magnetic spins in YTiO3 are synchronized by THz light, leading to a stronger and higher temperature ferromagnetic phase. Credit: © Jörg Harms, MPSD Researchers have used terahertz light pulses to induce ferromagnetism in a crystal at temperatures far above its normal transition temperature, paving the way for optically controlled memory […]
ESA Extends AI And Cloud Computing To Space
The two-CubeSat FSSCat mission, the first artificially intelligent European Earth observation mission. The FSSCat mission is based on two CubeSats, each about the size of a shoebox, that use state-of-the-art dual microwave and multispectral optical sensors to measure, for example, soil moisture, ice extent, ice thickness, urban heat islands and […]
How computing technology has evolved in the classroom
For many middle and high school students, the COVID-19 pandemic marked a major departure from the models of education they had been accustomed to for most of their lives. Instead of interacting with their peers and engaging with their teachers, eating lunch together in the cafeteria, and perhaps going to […]
Breaking the heat barrier of computer innovation
As our computers and other electronic devices become faster and more powerful, they are coming closer to an undeniable physical limitation: heat generated by the electrons that carry information as they move through semiconductors. Ran Cheng “Making heat is a fundamental limit that will prevent the further development of electronic […]
