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. […]
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 […]
The sleight-of-hand trick that can simplify scientific computing
Research software is like the tower-building game Jenga — tools atop tools atop tools. When developers tweak their individual pieces, this can change the function of the software that depends on them, potentially altering results — or causing the software to fail. Version 3.6.0 of the R programming language, for […]
Moore than meets the eye: The evolution of computing
Transistors replaced vacuum tubes in the mid-20th century. They were initially made of germanium and later silicon, leading to the development of integrated circuits containing millions to billions of transistors on a single chip. The Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET) became the dominant type due to its smaller size, faster speed, […]
