Next Big Thing: safer cyber

Dovie Salais

There are many practical problems associated with cloud computing. For a start, cloud computing is basically an infrastructure that is owned by a third party – we, the users, don’t own the hardware. Yet we entrust our data to this third party. To me, the analogy is like having some […]

The Future of Energy-Efficient Spintronics Computing

Dovie Salais

Spintronics is a promising approach to computer technology that uses the intrinsic angular momentum of electrons to process information, potentially making computers faster and more energy-efficient. Researchers have been experimenting with magnetic whirls, or skyrmions, and recently enhanced their diffusion rate by tenfold using synthetic antiferromagnets, paving the way for […]

Segments of DNA can self-assemble into circuits that perform computations Alexey Kotelnikov/Alamy A liquid computer can use strands of DNA to run over 100 billion different simple programs. It could eventually be used for diagnosing diseases within living cells. Fei Wang at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China and his […]

Why haven’t we got useful quantum computers yet?

Dovie Salais

Quantum computers are here, but aren’t yet particularly useful John D/Getty Images Quantum computers have long promised to solve certain problems faster than any ordinary, or classical, computer can. In fact, Google delivered on this promise in 2019, when it declared that its quantum computer had achieved quantum supremacy, performing a calculation […]

Will quantum computing make the cloud obsolete?

Dovie Salais

The cloud is big business – and it still has much growth potential. The global market for public cloud services this year will be worth about $597bn (£462bn), according to an estimate by Gartner in April. The tech research giant expects the total to leap to $725bn in 2024 and […]
